    摘要: A reflowable thermal fuse includes a positive-temperature-coefficient (PTC) device that defines a first end and a second end, a conduction element that defines a first end and a second end in electrical communication with the second end of the PTC device, and a restraining element that defines a first end in electrical communication with the first end of the PTC device and a second end, in electrical communication with a second end of the conduction element. The restraining element is adapted to prevent the conduction element from coming out of electrical communication with the PTC device in an installation state of the thermal fuse. During a fault condition, heat applied to the thermal fuse diverts current flowing between the first end of the PTC device and the second end of the conduction element to the restraining element, causing the restraining element to release the conduction element and activate the fuse.

    摘要: A fuse includes first, second, and third terminals disposed on a substrate. Respective ends of one or more primary conductors of the fuse are connected to one of the first and the second terminals. The primary conductors have a first conductivity and are configured to open when a primary current between the first and the second terminals exceeds a first predetermined threshold. One or more secondary conductors have an end connected to the third terminal. The secondary conductors are configured to ignite when a secondary current through the secondary conductors exceeds a second predetermined threshold. When ignited, the secondary conductors open the primary conductors to thereby stop the primary current.

    摘要: A thermal cut-off device includes a plastic base, two electrodes, a temperature sensing element, and a plastic cover that fits over the base. The temperature sensing element is curved downward, and may be a bimetal or a trimetal. When the device is subject to an over-temperature condition, the orientation of the curve flips such that the temperature sensing element is then curved upward. When the temperature sensing element is curved upward, it lifts an arm of one of the electrodes, which severs the electrical connection between the electrodes. In this manner the device shuts off during an over-temperature condition in order to protect the circuit in which the device is installed. To prevent corrosion of the temperature sensing element, a first moisture insulation layer is applied to the outer surface of the thermal cut-off device. The moisture insulation layer may be an epoxy adhesive or a UV/visible light-cured adhesive or light/heat cured adhesive. In some embodiments, a second moisture insulation layer is formed on the surface of the temperature sensing element.
