- MALVERN, Pa., March 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today introduced a new series of inrush current limiting positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors.
- Designed to increase performance in active charge and discharge circuits for automotive and industrial applications, Vishay BCcomponents PTCEL series devices combine a wide range of resistance at 25 °C (R25) values with high voltage and energy handling capabilities.
- By combining multiple thermistors in parallel, energy absorption levels over 1000 J can be achieved.
- With their high temperature operation to +105 °C, the PTCEL series offers a heat capacity to 2.3 J/K for all resistance values.
