Vishay's newly launched surge current limiting PTC thermistor enhances the performance of active charging and discharging circuits 1

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. recently launched a new type of surge current limiting PTC thermistor, which provides significant improvements in the performance of active charge and discharge circuits. This product combines efficient current limiting function with excellent high temperature resistance, providing stronger protection and higher stability for electronic devices.

Design Features and Advantagesdiode

The new PTC thermistor adopts Vishay's exclusive polymer positive temperature coefficient (PTC) technology, which can quickly respond to overcurrent situations in the circuit by increasing the resistance value to limit the current and prevent circuit damage. After the current returns to normal, the PTC thermistor can automatically return to a lower resistance state, ensuring the normal operation of the circuit. This feature makes it an ideal choice for protecting active charge and discharge circuits, especially in applications that require frequent charging and discharging.diode
