N10SP025L

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Overview

The YAGEO N10SP025L is a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor belonging to the SP series, designed for inrush current limiting applications. It features a ceramic disc with a diameter of 10 mm and a nominal resistance of 25 Ohms at standard reference conditions. The component supports a maximum steady-state current rating of 2 A and has a power dissipation rating of 2.5 W. It exhibits a resistance tolerance of ±15% and utilizes radial leads with a 5 mm spacing for PCB mounting. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +170°C.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Feature Summary

• Functions as an inrush current limiter to protect electronic circuits from high initial charging currents.
• Utilizes NTC ceramic material properties to provide low resistance during normal operation after thermal activation.
• Features radial leaded construction suitable for through-hole PCB mounting.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Applications

• Power supply input stages

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix designation against official documentation, as variants such as N10SP025L-F may exist with identical electrical characteristics but different packaging or marking specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status and applicable safety approvals like UL or TUV directly from the manufacturer datasheet prior to integration into certified designs.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Selection Notes

Select this component based on the required nominal resistance of 25 Ohms and the 2 A current handling capability. Ensure the operating environment stays within the specified -40°C to +170°C range. Compare against other SP series variants if higher current ratings or different resistance values are needed for the specific circuit topology.
