SCHURTER UHP Fuse: Compact High-Current Protection for the Next Generation of Humanoid Robotics

SCHURTER addresses this critical need with its UHP high-current SMD fuse, uniquely suited for protecting the sophisticated battery systems and power electronics at the heart of humanoid robots.

Santa Rosa, CA - June 12, 2025 - As humanoid robotics evolve into more advanced, agile, and autonomous systems, the demand for compact, high-performance components is accelerating. SCHURTER addresses this critical need with its UHP high-current SMD fuse, uniquely suited for protecting the sophisticated battery systems and power electronics at the heart of humanoid robots.


From robotic limbs with precise actuation to embedded AI processors requiring stable and safe power, the UHP fuse ensures primary circuit protection in demanding, space-constrained environments. With its SMD design and ultra-compact footprint, the UHP is ideal for high-density power architectures common in robotic platforms where reliability and miniaturization are non-negotiable.

Key features:
• Rated current up to 100 A
• Breaking capacity 2000A @ 80 VDC or 3000 A @ 63 VDC
• Safe tripping in 15s at twice the rated current
• High operating temperature range -55°C to +125°C
• Optimized for automated assembly, aligning with modern robot manufacturing processes

As developers push the boundaries of motion control, edge computing, and mobile energy storage, the SCHURTER UHP fuse provides the protection backbone for high-efficiency battery packs, DC/DC converters, and motor controllers - enabling humanoid robots to operate safely, reliably, and longer in the field.

The UHP fuse is available in tape-and-reel packaging and is UL-listed and RoHS-compliant. For product information, review the UHP Datasheet or contact Sales at info.sinc@schurter.com. The UHP and other SCHURTER products are supported through our franchised distributors.
