摘要:
A voltage variable material (“VVM”) including an insulative binder that is formulated to intrinsically adhere to conductive and non-conductive surfaces is provided. The binder and thus the VVM is self-curable and applicable in a spreadable form that dries before use. The binder eliminates the need to place the VVM in a separate device or to provide separate printed circuit board pads on which to electrically connect the VVM. The binder and thus the VVM can be directly applied to many different types of substrates, such as a rigid FR-4 laminate, a polyimide, a polymer or a multilayer PCB via a process such as screen or stencil printing. In one embodiment, the VVM includes two types of conductive particles, one with a core and one without a core. The VVM can also have core-shell type semiconductive particles.

An improved electrical circuit that includes an embedded electrical component and an embedded voltage variable material (“VVM”) is provided. In one embodiment, the embedded VVM is provided as a voltage variable substrate, which is used in combination with an embedded electrical component, such as an embedded resistive material or an embedded capacitive material.

Reactive fuses that contain reactive fuse elements for use in electrical circuits and other applications are provided. In various exemplary embodiments reactive materials and reactive foils are employed to provide a focused, localized heat source which can by used to open or sever a fuse element, or precisely join one or more metallic components. In particular, reactive material can be utilized to open a fuse element in response to the heat generated by a sustained overload current. Alternatively, reactive material may be utilized in the construction of a reactive fuse to join, for example, metallic components to a base fuse element or fuse cap.

Over-temperature protection devices, over-temperature applications on substrates, such as printed circuit boards, and over-temperature protection circuits, e.g., over-temperature protection in combination with a fuse or heater are provided. In various embodiments a shape memory alloy member is used, which can either break electrical contact with a conductor (open a circuit) or make electrical contact with a conductor (close a circuit). Upon opening a first circuit, the member can move to contact another conductor and complete a second circuit. The member can close a circuit, which is in parallel with a fused load, to provide a short circuit path that opens a fuse upon an over-temperature condition occurring, e.g., within an electrical device such as a cell phone or battery. Or, the member can be provided in parallel with a heater that energizes upon an overcurrent condition, triggering the member to open a circuit.

A surface mount fuse includes a substrate, a fuse element applied to the substrate, first and second terminals applied to substrate, first and second conductors connecting the fuse element electrically with the first and second terminals, and an enclosure coupled to the substrate, the enclosure covering the first and second conductors and defining a cavity overlying at least a portion of the fuse element, the cavity allowing for distortion of the fuse element upon its opening.
