Problems solved by technology

When the line does not exceed the safe current or does not reach the PTC operating temperature, the positive temperature coefficient resistance is low, which basically does not affect the normal operation of the line; when the line is over-current or reaches the PTC operating temperature, the PTC resistance value rises several times instantaneously. order of magnitude, so that the protected line will be blocked, and it will take a certain time for the PTC to return to the normal temperature resistance. The overvoltage of the PTC will inevitably cause the PTC to maintain a high resistance value and withstand the overvoltage and cause thermal breakdown; if it encounters a high peak overvoltage, it will cause the PTC insulation breakdown, which will bring safety hazards to the entire line

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of overcurrent protection of electricity power or an electronic circuit, in particular to a flexible limited current circuit. The flexible limited current circuit comprises a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) resistance PTC branch, a silicon carbide (SiC) nonlinear resistance SiC branch and a zinc oxide (ZnO) nonlinear resistor ZnO branch, wherein the resistance PTC branch, the nonlinear resistance SiC branch and the nonlinear resistor ZnO branch are connected in parallel. When the flexible limited current circuit is adopted to solve overcurrent problem of a circuit, the flexible limited current circuit is complete in function and has a self-protection function, maintenance is not needed, and safety of the circuit is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electric power or electronic circuit overcurrent protection, and more specifically relates to a flexible current limiting circuit. Background technique [0002] Most of the fuses currently used are one-time fuses. When the fuse is blown due to overcurrent, the entire protected circuit will be disconnected. This has the advantage of high safety, but at the same time brings the disadvantages of poor system stability and troublesome replacement. [0003] In electronic systems, self-recovery fuses with positive temperature coefficient resistors PTC as the main component are also used as overcurrent protection devices for lines. When the line does not exceed the safe current or does not reach the PTC operating temperature, the positive temperature coefficient resistance is low, which basically does not affect the normal operation of the line; when the line is over-current or reaches the PTC operating temperatu...
