An over-current protection device includes a first metal layer, a second metal layer and a heat-sensitive layer laminated therebetween. The heat-sensitive layer exhibits a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) characteristic and includes a polymer matrix and a first conductive filler. The polymer matrix includes a polyolefin-based polymer and a fluoropolymer. The fluoropolymer has a melt flow index higher than 1.9 g/10 min, and the polyolefin-based polymer and the fluoropolymer together form an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN). The first conductive filler has a metal-ceramic compound dispersed in the polymer matrix.
