307C Lighting Thermistors
Vishay Cera-Mite
PTC Thermistors For Electronic Fluorescent Ballasts
FEATURES
• Electrode preheat thermistors for use in compact
fluorescent lamps (CFL) and electronic ballasts.
• Current limiting, time-delayed start-up extends lamp life.
• Quiet, flicker-free operation.
• Developed in cooperation with leading ballast designers.
• Both standard and custom parts are available.
• Economical, reliable and proven in millions of lamps
throughout the world.
APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
• Ignition time can be optimized to increase life of lamp.
• PTC resistance (R
25
) is chosen, along with filament
resistance and application voltage, to control desired
electrode preheat current.
• Lamp preheat time is determined by time required for
thermistor to switch from low to high resistance state.
Preheat currents shown result in switch times of
approximately 1 second at 25°C. Lower currents result in
longer switch times.

- Nominal zero power resistance
±
25% at 25°C. For given diameter, higher resistance thermistors offer higher maximum voltages.
Instantaneous Voltage - Maximum rms voltage permitted across thermistor during fluorescent lamp start-up cycle.
Continuous Voltage - Maximum rms voltage continuously applied across thermistor during normal lamp operation.
Preheat Current - rms current (60Hz) which switches thermistor to high resistance in approximately 1 second at 25°C ambient.
Size (mass) of PTC influences rate of I

R temperature increase. For given resistance, larger thermistors have longer switch times.
Optional coating slightly increases switch time.
