AUTOMOTIVE PTC THERMISTOR DEVICES PTC thermistors are insensitive to voltage fluctuations and can be operated on any voltage supplies from 12V-230V. Because of this versatility, many applications in the automotive industry are being developed with PTC thermistors as primary components for heating, protecting, and sensing purposes. Innovative automotive component designs using PTC thermistors are surfacing rapidly and we are working closely with a number of auto component suppliers to meet the increasing demands. Projects currently in the developmental phase are listed in the applications section below: |
