1. Protective Threshold Current
2. Protective Threshold Current Range
3. Operating Time
The maximum current value is called the "Protective
Threshold Current" for Voltage vs. Current characteristics
(static).
When smaller than the protective threshold current flows
in POSISTORr, it reaches its stability (as shown in figure
on right) at the intersection (A) of the load curve (a) and
voltage-current characteristics of POSISTORr(c). And
POSISTORr works as normal fixed resistor.
However, when larger than protective threshold current
flows, it stabilizes at the intersection (B) with the load
curve (b).
Protective threshold current varies depending on the
ambient temperature, resistance value, temperature
characteristics and shape (Figure of right) The maximum
value of trip current and the minimum value of the non-
operating current are in the range of ambient temperature
-10 to +60 C.
That is, when a current is smaller than the non-operating
current, POSISTORr works only as a fixed resistor.
When larger than the trip current flows, however,
POSISTORr protects the circuit from overload.
A period starting from the voltage input to the moment
current itself sharply attenuates is called "Operating
Time". Conventionally, operation time (t
