Abstract
An over-current protection device comprises two metal foils and a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) material layer. The PTC material layer is sandwiched between the two metal foils and comprises plural crystalline polymers with at least one polymer melting point below 115° C., and a non-oxide electrically conductive ceramic powder. The non-oxide electrically conductive ceramic powder exhibits a certain particle size distribution. The PTC material layer has a resistivity below 0.1 Ω-cm. The initial resistance of the device is below 20 mΩ, and the area of the PTC material layer is below 30 mm. The over-current protection device exhibits a surface temperature below 100° C. under the trip state of over-current protection.
