Littelfuse Introduces 1 Amp Fault Protected Solid State Relays with Integrated Current Limit and Over Temperature Shutdown

     Littelfuse, Inc., the world's leading manufacturer of circuit protection, power control and sensing technologies, today announced the CPC1561B Solid State Relay (SSR). The CPC1561B is the highest current (1 A, 60 V) normally-on SSR currently available on the market with integrated current-limit and over-temperature shutdown circuits.

     The small surface mount CPC1561B SSR offers the advantage of double fault protection, providing a reliable solution for demanding applications that cannot be met by electromechanical relays and ordinary SSRs.Typical markets and applications for the CPC1561B include: smart home, building automation, gaming, instrumentation and battery powered systems

     "The CPC1561B is ideal for markets and applications that cannot be shut down for extended periods of time due to overcurrent, thermal and electrical stress," said Steve Andrezyk, Director of Integrated Circuit Marketing, Littelfuse-IXYS. "The CPC1561B output relay can withstand harsh conditions and recover once the fault is removed. normal operation, reducing product downtime, and because the SSR can both protect itself and reset to resume normal operation, there is no need to call for repairs.”
