- Introducing the compact, high-voltage “TCKE9
Series” -
Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (“Toshiba”)
has launched a lineup of eight compact, high-voltage electronic
fuses (eFuse ICs), the TCKE9 Series, that support multiple
functions for the protection of power supply lines. Shipments of
the first two products “TCKE903NL” and “TCKE905ANA” start today,
with others to follow.

lines. (Graphic: Business Wire)
The TCKE9 Series products have a current limit and voltage clamp
function to protect the lines in power supply circuits against
overcurrent and overvoltage conditions, something that standard
physical fuses cannot do. Even in the event of abnormal overcurrent
or overvoltage, the specified current and voltage are
maintained.
The new products also feature over-temperature protection and
short-circuit protection, which protects a circuit by immediately
shutting off the eFuse IC when abnormal heat is generated in the
circuit or an unexpected short-circuit occurs. A further eFuse IC
advantage is the elimination of complex circuit design and a
reduced component count, realizing much simpler circuit designs
with fewer components and a smaller area than is possible with a
protection function secured with discrete parts.
Toshiba intends to obtain IEC 62368-1 certification, the
international safety standard for high level safety, for the eFuse
ICs, which will also simplify certification tests customers’
devices are required to undergo.
The product lineup offers eight products: four, 3.3V, 5V, 12V,
20V, are suitable for overvoltage protection of a range of power
supply voltages, and each has two types – an auto-retry type, where
the eFuse IC automatically recovers the circuit itself, and a latch
type, where recovery is triggered by an external signal. Customers
can select the appropriate product for their requirements and the
size of their equipment.
Reference designs for an eFuse IC Application Circuit (with
Thermal Shutdown) and an eFuse IC Application Circuit (with
Enhanced Overcurrent Protection) are available now on Toshiba’s
website.
