NTE03-019L

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Overview

The YAGEO NTE03-019L is a Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor designed for inrush current limiting applications. It features a nominal resistance of 19 Ohms with a tolerance of ±15% and supports a steady-state current of 3 Amperes. The component utilizes a leaded through-hole construction with a cylindrical body diameter of 10mm. This device is engineered to protect electronic circuits from high initial surge currents during power-up, ensuring stable operation by dynamically reducing resistance as temperature increases.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Feature Summary

• Provides effective suppression of high inrush currents during circuit startup
• Features automatic resistance reduction as operating temperature rises
• Constructed with robust leaded design for reliable through-hole mounting

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Applications

• Power supply input stages
• Motor drive protection circuits
• Transformer inrush current limitation

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against official YAGEO documentation to confirm lead-free compliance status. Ensure the selected variant matches the required 19 Ohm resistance and 3A current rating for the target application. Cross-reference the datasheet for thermal characteristics and maximum energy absorption limits before integration.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Selection Notes

Select this component based on the required nominal resistance of 19 Ohms and the 3A steady-state current capacity. Confirm that the 10mm body size fits the available PCB space. Evaluate the thermal environment to ensure the device can handle the expected energy dissipation without exceeding its maximum operating temperature limits during repeated switching cycles.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Part Context

This part belongs to the NT series of NTC thermistors manufactured by YAGEO. These components are specialized for inrush current limiting rather than temperature sensing. The series offers various resistance values and current ratings to suit different power levels, providing a standardized solution for surge protection in electronic equipment.

Inrush Current Limiters (ICL) Replacement Considerations

Consult official YAGEO substitution guides for verified equivalents. Generic replacements must match the 19 Ohm resistance, 3A current rating, and 10mm form factor to ensure functional compatibility.
