Inrush Current Limiting
Power Thermistors
U.S. Sensor’s inrush current limiting power thermistors are specially formulated
and processed NTC thermistors suitable for suppressing high inrush currents in
switching power supplies and other applications where the high initial starting
currents are undesirable. Their unique design enables them to handle extremely
high current and voltage levels. In a typical power supply application, the device
is used in series with the filter capacitors. Upon application of the initial voltage,
the device, due to its relatively high resistance, limits the current flow to an
acceptable level until the capacitors are charged. Thereafter, the device decreases
in resistance substantially to a level where the voltage drop across it is negligible.
Maximum Steady State Current (I
For power thermistors, the maximum continuous
steady state current, either DC or RMS AC, which
the device is capable of passing. The maximum
steady state current for U.S. Sensor power thermis-
tors is determined assuming a maximum operating
ambient temperature of 65˚C. If a specific applica-
tion requires ambient temperature operation above
65˚C, custom designed devices are available.
Resistance At Maximum Current (RI
For power thermistors, the approximate resistance of the
device under maximum steady state current conditions.

The circuit diagram above
demonstrates a typical method to
limit inrush current at turn on in
a power supply. Two or more
inrush current limiting devices
may be used in series or in sepa-
rate legs of the supply circuit.
The devices may not be used in
parallel since one will tend to
pass nearly all the current avail-
able. U.S. Sensor’s inrush current
limiters may be used in either the
AC or DC portions of the circuit.
