Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a system and method for an intrinsically safe device. An IS mobile device has a housing, a PCB, a plurality of fuse circuits on the PCB, and a plurality of operational components on the PCB. The IS device includes a battery pack connected to the plurality of fuse circuits, wherein the plurality of fuse circuits are connected to the plurality of operational circuits on the IS device to ensure that no operational circuit can draw too much current. The present invention is viewed as providing methods for a IS device. The method includes attaching a plurality of fuse circuits to a PCB, and attaching a plurality of operational circuits on the PCB. The method includes attaching a battery pack connected to the plurality of fuse circuits and attaching the PCB to the housing.
