Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) Characteristics

Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) Characteristics

N/A PTC Thermistors have self-regulating characteristics and will not overheat. If a current runs through each thermistor, it will auto-stabilize at a certain temperature. This results in safer operation, better conductivity, greater operating efficiency, a stable electronics response, and longer life expectancy.

Custom Designs

N/A Standard PTC Thermistors are supplied in round, square, or rectangular shapes. Additional sizes and configurations can be customized depending on application requirements and order quantities.

PTC Thermistors can be used in a variety of applications, including:
  • Heating Plates
  • Drying Machines
  • Hair Dryers
  • Hot Melt Glue Guns
  • Foot Warmers
  • Diesel/fuel Heaters
  • Self-regulating Heating Elements
  • Carburetor Pre Heating
  • Irons
PTC Thermistors are an effective means of safe and energy efficient heating and are ideal for applications where space is limited and where low power consumption and long life operation are desired.

Note

Note

N/A Models listed in the specifications table can be portioned into smaller sizes (MIN= 2.5 x 2.5 mm). The resistance of segmented PTC thermistors will increase in proportion with their size.

Example
  • A PTC thermistor of 1000 Ω, segmented into 1/2 will have resistance 2000 Ω per segment (1000 Ω x divide into 2 pcs = 2000 Ω).
  • A PTC thermistor of 20 Ω, segmented into 1/4, will have resistance 80 Ω per piece (20 Ω x divide into 4 pcs = 80 Ω)
  • Standard in-stock models and the delivery is shorter.
  • Voltage, dimensions, resistance, temperature, or Curie temperature can also be customized for large quantities (longer lead times and large minimum order quantities may apply).
  • For lower temperature applications (10ºC ~90ºC), please consider our LCHT range of PTC Heat Conductor products with the characteristics of no inrush current, stable power, and adherence to Ohms Law. Ratings: 3V AC/DC ~ 600V AC/DC (CUL, CE), TºC =10ºC ~250.
  • PTC Thermistors contain Pb under the permission of RoHS exemption 7(c)-I: Electrical and electronic components containing lead in a glass or ceramic other than dielectric ceramic in capacitors, e.g. piezoelectronic devices, or in a glass or ceramic matrix compound.
