Flow sensing in tankless water heaters
Reed switches and sensors are highly effective solutions for flow sensing applications that can be used for detecting the presence of fluid flow in a system or even measure the rate of fluid flow.
Protecting rechargeable Li-batteries in portable electronics
Littelfuse offers designers several protection devices to choose from in an array of form factors and device characteristics that meet the needs of their particular design. As sleeker designs and thinner portable consumer electronics become increasingly popular, Lithium-ion and Lithium- polymer batteries have become the 'go-to' power sources of choice in these applications.
Low resistivity PPTC to improve Li-ion polymer battery packs
Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) have now become part of the standard battery pack of choice used in most notebook, smartphone, e-reader, and tablet designs. The LIB chemistry produces optimal characteristics with regard to high energy density, low self-discharge, light weight, long cycle life, lack of memory effect, and low maintenance. LIBs are now gaining popularity in other market segments such as electric vehicl...
Protecting luminaires in Class I or Class II installations
Global circuit protection company, Littelfuse, has announced the LSP05GI series - a 10kV/5kA capable surge protection module with IEC/EN 61643-11 certification to help luminaire manufacturers meet the latest testing standards. It also provides double insulated cable to simplify cable routing design in the luminaire.

SiC schottky diodes reduce switching losses
Four new series of 1,200V Silicon Carbide (SiC) Schottky Diodes have been introduced by Littelfuse. They diodes are from the company's GEN2 product family, which was originally released in May 2017.
TVS diode arrays protect telecom ports from ESD surges
Optimised to protect sensitive telecommunication ports against electrostatic discharge (ESD) and lightning-induced surge events, Littelfuse has introduced a series of AEC-Q101-qualified TVS diode arrays. SP4208 series TVS Diode Arrays (SPA Diodes) integrate low capacitance steering diodes with either one avalanche breakdown diode (for unidirectional protection) or two (for bidirectional protection).
A selection guide to IGBT and rectifier diode modules
Welcome to the IGBT and rectifier diode modules selection guide. An insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is a three-terminal power semiconductor device primarily used as an electronic switch which, as it was developed, came to combine high efficiency and fast switching.
