ABSTRACT:
A positive temperature coefficient (PTC) device, preventing silver migration effect and partial excessive heating, comprises a circular semiconductor PTC ceramic plate having a pair of first non-silver conductive layers attached on both surfaces of said PTC ceramics plate. A pair of second conductive layers, including silver, is attached on the first layers and an elongated periphery portion on the first layers is left without said second layers. A pair of conductive terminals couples the PTC element with an external circuit, each terminal having a convex portion to contact and support the PTC plate at the second layers so that the first layers do not directly touch with the terminals.
