Product Description: USB Type-C connectors have been increasingly widely used in smart phones, Tablet PCs, notebooks, power banks, smart wearables, and other devices. Users benefit from its thin shape, up to 100W power transmission, support for forward and reverse plug, and other advantages, but overheating of the connector often happens during use, which can lead to smoke or even burning. For example, once there is a foreign body such as metal shavings, water stains, or hair in the connector, the narrow needle design often causes Vbus and GND to form a micro-short circuit. Therefore, Type-C overheat protection becomes very necessary.
Product Description: PPTC is a kind of electric transient current protection component, widely used in telecommunications, consumer electronic products, computers, multimedia, batteries, the industrial automotive industry, and other fields. When unusually large current occurs in the circuit, the heat generated by the PPTC will increase sharply. The internal resistance limits the circuit current to a minimum level in a short time, avoiding damage to other components and preventing danger. This protection effect is similar to a one-time fuse, but with recovery characteristics: when the abnormal circuit troubleshooting is complete, the resistance of the PPTC returns to the initial level and the circuit returns to normal.
