Hi,
I have a design with a 6 mills trace that takes just one 1.6Amps pulse for a period equal to 100 mS. This pulse is very sporadic. The trace gets very hot momentarily, but the heat dissipates quickly. The design works fine, but I'm concerned that it might fail over time. I can't use a bigger trace for this design. Do you think that this design is safe? Will it hold over time?
Thanks,
Robert
