PTC stands for Positive Temperature Coefficient. PTC thermistors are ceramic components whose electrical resistance rapidly increases when a certain temperature is exceeded. This property makes them ideal for use in countless applications of modern electrical and electronic engineering, for example, as self-resetting fuses against current overload or for short circuit protection in motors. PTC thermistors are used in electronic lamp ballasts and switch-mode power supplies for delayed switching. Special motor-start PTC thermistors are also used in refrigerator compressors, for instance. Ceramic PTC (CPTC) and Polymer PTC (PPTC) are two types based on production technology, and both are covered by data in this report.
