摘要:
A surface-mount positive coefficient thermistor includes a plate-like positive coefficient thermistor element, a pair of electrodes on the respective two main surfaces of the positive coefficient thermistor element, a pair of metal terminals each having a cutout at one end region connected to the corresponding electrode, the metal terminals including a metal having a low thermal conductivity, and solders each connecting the end region of the corresponding metal terminal to the outermost layer of the corresponding electrode. The metal terminal is readily and uniformly soldered to the electrode in a short period of time.
