TWIN Vertical SMD PTC Thermistors
For Telecom Overload Protection
FEATURES
• Very small footprint, allowing to increase the
number of lines per PCB
• Matched pairs in one component, significantly
reducing the assembly time
• Narrow tracking between the 2 PTC’s over a wide
temperature range (matching at 85 °C:
2 x matching at
25 °C)
• Limited height and weight, used on high speed pick-and-
place circuit assembly
• Flat pick-up ceramic area for easy placement
• Small ceramics for faster response time
• Thermal coupled PTC’s for enhanced protection
• Small and large pitch available
• Compliant with the enhanced level requirements of
ITU - K20-21-45 edition 2003
• Suitable for lead (Pb)-bearing and lead (Pb)-free reflow
soldering
• Material categorization: For definitions of compliance

APPLICATIONS
Over-temperature/over-load protection:

- Telecommunications infrastructure
- PABX
- Set-top Box (S.B.)
DESCRIPTION
The component consists of two high performance PTC
ceramics mounted together on an alumina spacer cover and
with 4 lead (Pb)-free tin plated contacts. The terminations
are joined to the Ag plated ceramics by a high melting
solder.
MOUNTING
A flat pick-up area of 30 mm2 and low weight allows for fast
placement. No excessive solder paste should be used as no
solder or flux can reach the ceramic body during reflow
soldering. Not suitable for bismuth containing solder.
Typical soldering
235 °C, duration: 5 s (Lead (Pb)-bearing)
245 °C, duration: 5 s (Lead (Pb)-free)
Resistance to soldering heat
260 °C, duration: 10 s max.
MARKING
• All TWIN Vertical SMD PTC’s are marked with the last
3-digits of the type number (BCxxx) and a date code
(YYWW)

SOLDERING CONDITIONS
This SMD thermistor is only suitable for reflow soldering, in accordance with JEDEC J-STD-020. Soldering processes which can
be used are reflow (infrared and convection heating) and vapour phase. The maximum temperature of 260 °C during 10 s should
not be exceeded and no liquid flux should be allowed to reach the ceramic body.
Typical examples of soldering processes that will provide reliable joints without damage, are shown below.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Because of the nature of PTC ceramic material the component should not be touched with bare hands, as the residue of
perspiration can influence component behaviour at high temperatures.
Handling forces applied to the component should be limited to 5 N in any condition.
