I hold current
I hold, high non operating current (maintenance current), refers to the high current that PPTC always maintains its low resistance state at the specified ambient temperature (priority 25 ℃).
I hold: maintain current;
V max: withstand high voltage;
T trip: specifies the large action time under the current;
R: Zero power resistance measured at a certain temperature;
I trip: action current;
I max: The maximum current that can be withstood;
P d: steady-state power consumption in high resistance state;
R 1max.: The high resistance value measured at room temperature after one hour of action or soldering.
Let's take a look at the internal structure of the device, as shown in Figure 4. Place the test sample in a specified temperature and condition test box, connect the PPTC to a constant current or constant voltage source, and preset the current value to the specified I hold, with the voltage limited to 90% of V max. After the specified time in the detailed specifications, measure the voltage at both ends of the PPTC and record it. The PPTC should not enter the operating state.
