Abstract

Electronic detonator is a new detonator that employs a piece of time series as key to control explosion.In the modern world, the electromagnetic condition is very complex so that electronic detonator may come into being a misoperation because of induced current or noise.A new circuit was designed to enhance the safety of electronic detonator with programmable fuse and anti-fuse. A fuse is parallelly connected to the detonator, and an anti-fuse is serially connected to it in the circuit. Both are used to prevent the current from flowing into the detonator and exploding it. The fuse and the anti-fuse are rewritten by the special unit only after the signal of that detonator is ready to explode is coming.Then the role of fuse and anti-fuse changes, and the detonator is able to receive the exploding current. The design can greatly improve the safety of electronic detonator so that it can be used more broadly.
