Fpga Programmer - Quest For Fuse

Hello, i'm in between a project and stuck with the design of safety of the system. I'm in need of the following fuses, :confused: 15 mA, 3.3V 75 micro-ampere, 3.3V 15 mA...

Typically fuses have a maximum voltage rating but they are not designed for a specific voltage. So you're going to use the same 15mA fuse for the 3.3V,5V, and 12V application. Likewise you will use the same 75uA fuse (assuming it exists) for the 3.3V and 12V application. So really you are looking for two fuses.

Try digikey. I've never put a fuse on anything as low as 75uA so can't help you there.
