STPW12 – programmable electronic power breaker for 12V bus
https://www.electronics-lab.com/stpw12-programmable-electronic-power-breaker-12v-bus/
The STPW12 is an integrated electronic power breaker, optimized to monitor the input power. Connected in series to the power rail, it is able to disconnect the electronic circuitry on its output if the power consumption overcomes the programmed limit. When this happens, the device automatically opens the integrated power switch and disconnects the load. […]
