Using an NTC Thermistor as a Surge Suppressor

Last Updated on January 2, 2024 by Swagatam 166 Comments

ntc 2

A Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor is a device which is able to suppress switch ON current surge due to its initial higher resistance at room temperature. However, as the NTC suppresses the initial surge current, it warms up causing its resistance to drop to nominal levels and this in turns allows the current to […]
