The fuse block has a simple terminal layout for input and output connections. Below is the pin configuration:
Terminal Name | Description |
---|---|
Input (+) | Positive power input terminal (connect to the battery or power source). |
Input (-) | Negative power input terminal (connect to the ground). |
Output 1-12 | Output terminals for each fuse slot, providing protected power to circuits. |
LED Indicator | Lights up when the corresponding fuse is blown, aiding in fault detection. |
The fuse block can be used to protect circuits powered by an Arduino UNO. Below is an example of how to connect the fuse block to an Arduino-powered project:
// Example Arduino code for a simple LED circuit
// This assumes the circuit is protected by the fuse block
const int ledPin = 13; // Pin connected to an LED
void setup() {
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // Set the LED pin as an output
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // Turn the LED on
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // Turn the LED off
delay(1000); // Wait for 1 second
}
