Abstract

A method of manufacturing a fuse includes stacking a base plate, an at least partially conductive fabric over the base plate and a cover layer over the fabric, each with an intervening bonding layer. At least one cavity is provided on both sides of the fabric, adjoining the fabric, between the respective edge regions. In addition, the fabric includes at least one first fiber which is electrically conductive and second fibers which are non-conductive and which have a lower melting temperature than the first fiber. The method further includes heating the stacked elements to a temperature below the melting temperature of the first fiber and above the melting temperature of the second fibers.
