Ametherm's bigAMP Inrush Current Limiters are specially designed thermistors able to withstand up to 36 amperes of continuous current and 260 joules of input energy.
The bigAMP Inrush Current Limiter is useful in:
Switching Power Supplies
AC Motors
Uninterruptible Power Supplies
Frequency Generators
Other equipment that can be improved with inrush current protection
The miniAMP series is designed for applications where board space is limited and cool operation is desired. The cost effective miniAMP inrush current limiter is an efficient way to protect components such as relays, diodes, and fuses from inrush current.
The miniAMP series is available in 3, 5, and 8mm diameters and weigh as little as .06 grams. The miniAMP series cold resistance ranges from 5 ohm to 220 ohm.
