The electrical properties of a laminated SMD type PTC thermistor for microcircuit protection were investigated as a function of polymer blowing agent addition. Green ceramics for multilayered BaTiO3-based PTCRs were formed by doctor blade method of barium titanate powders; we successfully laminated the sintered ceramic chips to obtain 10 layer chip PTCRs with PTC effect. The sintered density increases with increasing sintering temperature. The electrical properties of the sintered samples were strongly dependent on the calcination and addition of a polymer blowing agent. When BaTiO3 powders containing 0.2 mol% of Y2O3 were calcined at 1000˚C for 2 hrs, the resistivity jump was of 1-2 orders of magnitude. The resistivity at room temperature increases according to the polymer blowing agent addition. Also, the sample using the calcined powder showed a lower resistivity than that of the sample prepared using powders without calcinations. With an increase in the OBSH, the magnitude of the resistivity jumped as a function of the temperature increase. The resistivity of the sintered bodies after the addition of 0.5 wt% polymer blowing agent at 1290˚C for 2 h was shown to be about 8.5Ω·cm; the jump order of the sintered bodies was shown to be on the order of 102.

Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) materials have been widely studied for industrial applications, such assensors and temperature compensation devices. NTC thermistor thick films of Ni1+xMn2-xO4+δ (x=0.05, 0, −0.05) werefabricated on a glass substrate using the aerosol deposition method at room temperature. Resistance verse temperature (R-T)characteristics of the as-deposited films showed that the B constant ranged from 3900 to 4200 K between 25oC and 85oCwithout heat treatment. When the film was annealed at 600oC 1h, the resistivity of the film gradually decreased due tocrystallization and grain growth. The resistivity and the activation energy of films annealed at 600oC for 1 h were 5.203, 5.95,and 4.772KΩ·cm and 351, 326, and 299meV for Ni0.95Mn2.05O4+δ, NiMn2O4, and Ni1.05Mn1.95O4+δ, respectively. The annealingprocess induced insulating Mn2O3 in the Ni deficient Ni0.95Mn2.05O4+δ composition resulting in large resistivity and activationenergy. Meanwhile, excess Ni in Ni1.05Mn1.95O4+δ suppressed the abnormal grain growth and changed Mn3+ to Mn4+, givinglower resistivity and activation energy.

Circuitry to be connected to a Telecommunication Network consists of SELV CIRCUITS or TNV CIRCUITS. So International Standards, like as ITU-T Recommendation K.11, UL 1950, CSA C22.2 950 have been taken to reduce the risk that the Overvoltages from the power lines and from electrictraction lines, that may be received from the telecommunication network. Legal requirements may exist regarding permission to connect equipment having PTC components to a telecommunication network. Surge suppressors that bridge the insulation shall have a minimum d.c. sparkover voltage of 1.6 times the rated voltage or 1.6 times the upper voltage of the tared voltage range of the equipment. If left in place during electric strength testing of insulation, they shall not be damaged. In this work, The Conception ＆ Fail-Mode Analysis of PTC components for Over-Current Protection is proposed. It guarantees the protection for PL Claim about this Subject.

Fe2O3, Al2O3, TiO2 및 Si분말을 사용하여 고상반응법으로 써어미스터 소결체를 합성하였다. 합성된 소결체의 조식특성을 SEM으로 조사하고, 액체항온조에서 -50~+50˚C 온도영역에서의 측정 결과 β상수가 972~4005K의 값을 갖는 써어미스터 소결체를 얻었다. 이 소결체는 고공기온측정을 위한 라디오존데용 온도센서로 사용될 수 있다.
