Energy absorbing circuits used to suppress voltage spikes caused by circuit’s inductance when a switch opens.
The RC Snubber is a component that comprises a resistor (R) and a capacitor (C) connected in series. It effectively mitigates voltage spikes that can occur during the switching of inductive loads by providing a short-term alternative current path around the switching device, so that the inductive load is safely discharged. The RC Snubber can protect sensitive components of your Shelly device from voltage spikes and improve the overall performance and reliability of the connected circuits.
Main applications:
The RC Snubber finds common applications with inductive loads, such as:
Shelly RC snubber
RC Snubber
