Vishay expands automotive grade glass encapsulated protective thermistors

     Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced that NTCS0603E3..... T and NTCS0805E3..... T series automotive grade glass package protection thermistors have expanded the overall dimensions of 0603 and 0805, and new resistance devices at+25 ° C (R25). The device complies with AEC-Q200 standard, and R25 resistance values include 1k and 1.5k low resistance values and newly added 5k resistance values, which are applicable to IGBT and power MOSFET module protection of electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).

     The enhanced thermistor is encapsulated in glass to achieve comprehensive protection, and the R25 resistance value and β The tolerance of the value (B25/85) is as low as 1%, which allows accurate temperature detection, protection and compensation in the temperature range of - 40 C to+150 C. NTCS0603E3..... T and NTCS0805E3..... T series devices are smaller than MELF resistors, easy to assemble, and have extremely high bending strength. They are suitable for vehicle mounted step-down converters, LED modules, battery packs, electric vehicle charging piles, wind power and solar panel inverters, and office equipment.
