family of Polymer Positive
Temperature Coefficient (PPTC) “resettable
fuses” are used in a wide variety of circuit
protection applications.
Under fault conditions the device resistance
will rise exponentially and remain in a
“tripped” state, providing continuous circuit
protection until the fault is removed. Once the
fault is removed and the power cycled the device
will return to its normal low resistance state.

PTCs are certified under UL, CSA, IEC and
TÜV registration programs.
Current, Hold (Ihold)
The maximum current a PTC device can pass without
interruption.
Current, Maximum (Imax)
The maximum fault current a PTC device can withstand
without damage at the rated voltage.
Current, Trip (Itrip)
The minimum current that will switch a PTC from the
low resistance to the high resistance state.
Fault Current
The peak current that flows through a PTC or wire
during a short circuit or arc back.
Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC)
A characteristic of the PTC device that describes the large
increase in resistance as the device reaches its switching
(trip) temperature.
Resistance, Post Trip (R1max)
The maximum resistance one hour after a PTC device
has been tripped and power has been removed.
Resistance, Post Reflow (R1max)
The maximum resistance one hour after a PTC surface
mount device has been reflow soldered.
Voltage, Maximum (Vmax)
The maximum voltage a PTC device can withstand
without damage at the rated current.
