Cantherm, a leading provider of electronic components, has unveiled its latest innovation in inrush current suppression technology with the MF72 series Power NTC Thermistors. These thermistors are designed to protect sensitive electronics from damaging current surges during power-up, offering a cost-effective solution for a wide range of applications.
The MF72 Power NTC Thermistors are compact yet highly efficient, making them suitable for use in power supplies, inverters, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), energy-saving lamps, electronic ballasts, filament protection systems for lamps, and select heater types.
Key features
- Small size and fast response time.
- High power handling capability.
- Rapid response to surge current.
- High material constant (B value).
- Low residual resistance.
- Wide operating temperature range from -55°C to +200°C.
- R25 allowable tolerance of ±20%.
- Long-term stability and reliability.
These Power NTC Thermistors work by limiting the current surges typically experienced during power-on, effectively protecting sensitive components from harm. Once the circuit is energized, the resistance of the MF72 rapidly decreases to a very low value, ensuring minimal power consumption and no impact on normal operating current.
The MF72 series Power NTC Thermistors are now available for integration into power circuits, offering a robust solution for inrush current limiting in various electronic devices.
