FTP Series

PTC Thermistor “Micro Heater”

(Flat Thin head Insulated Type)

FTP Series

Overview

The FTP series generate heat at specified temperature when voltage is applied and also serve to control

temperature.

The FTP series are mounted PTC ceramics, so high reliability and quick heating up are available.

Also outer size is small, so the FTP series can heat required small part only. And electricity loss can be minimized as

for heating.

In addition to the above, the FTP series can be operated with low voltage battery.

These help the customer downsize heating construction and high performance.

Features

 Self-Temperature Control by PTC characteristics.

 Low voltage operation

 Top surface insulated SMD part

 Compact light design

 Fastest time heating operation

 Small spot heating

 Design free heating layout

Applications

 Heating Electric Device for Temperature compensation

 Removal of dew condensation or freeze

(Camera, Mirror etc.)

 Beauty and Health-Care application

(Massager etc.)

 Paper dryer for PPC printer

 Several Accessory warmer

7. Caution

1. Applying the voltage exceeding the specified ‘Maximum Voltage’ may causes deterioration

of the characteristics or destruction of this product. Do not apply the voltage exceeding

the ‘Maximum Voltage’.

2. Do not use PTC Thermistor under the following environments because all these factors can

deteriorate the characteristics of product or can cause the failures and the burning-out.

(1)Corrosive or dioxidizing gas atmosphere (Ex. Cl2, H2S, NH3, SOx, NOx, etc.)

(Ex. Resistance abnormality, Emit smoke, Ignition)

(2) Volatile or flammable gas (Ex. Resistance abnormality, Emit smoke, Ignition)

(3) Dusty place (Ex. Short)

(4) Under vacuum, reducing pressure or under high-pressure (Ex. Resistance abnormality)

(5) Place with salt water, oils, chemical liquids or organic solvents

(Ex. Resistance abnormality, Short)

(6) Place strongly vibrated (Ex. Open)

(7) Other place, where is similar like the above-mentioned environments

3. Please install PTC thermistor in order not to touch directly. Because PTC thermistor becomes

high temperature when voltage is applied.

4. Though the top surface of PTC thermistor is insulated, the insulation of the bottom of

PTC thermistor is not enough due to exposure of electrical wiring and so on.

So please ensure proper insulation around PTC thermistor on your product.

5. As the surface temperature of PTC thermistor is changed by the usage condition like thermal

load etc. please use the temperature control circuit with PTC thermistor in case that severe

temperature control is required.

6. Please contact us before using this product for the under-mentioned applications requiring,

especially high reliability, in order to prevent defects which might directly cause damage to

other party’s life, body or property. (Listed below.)

(1)Aircraft equipment (6) Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.)

(2)Aerospace equipment (7) Traffic signal equipment

(3)Undersea equipment (8) Disaster prevention / Crime prevention equipment

(4)Power plant control equipment (9) Data-processing equipment

(5)Medical equipment (10) Applications of similar complexity or with reliability

requirement comparable to the applications listed in the above

7. Be sure to provide an appropriate fail-safe function on your product to prevent a second

damage that may be caused by the abnormal function or the failure of our product.

1. Use this product within the specified temperature range. Higher temperature may cause deterioration

of the characteristics or the material quality of this product.

2. Following conditions should be kept in order to avoid deterioration of solderability of outer electrodes

and the characteristics of this products, because this is MOISTURE SENSITIVE DEVICES.

MOISTURE SENSITIVE DEVICES

(1) Calculated shelf life in sealed bag: 6 months at -10 to 40 deg.C and <75% relative humidity (RH).

This product should be treated as MSL3 of JEDEC J-STD-020D.1.

(2) Storage Place: Store this product in no corrosive gas (SOX, Cl, etc.), nor directly under sunshine.

3. Solder and Flux

(1) Solder Paste

Reflow Soldering : Use solder paste.

For your reference, we are using the solder paste below for any internal tests of this product.

• M705 solder paste (Sn:Ag:Cu=96.5wt%:3.0wt%:0.5wt%)

(Manufactured by Senju Metals Industry Co., Ltd.)

(2) Flux : Use rosin type flux in soldering process. If below flux is used, some problems might be

caused in the product characteristics and reliability. Please do not use below flux.

• Strong acidic flux (with halide content exceeding 0.1wt%).

• Water-soluble flux(*Water-soluble flux can be defined as non rosin type flux including

wash-type flux and non-wash-type flux.)

4. For removing the flux after soldering, observe the following points in order to avoid

deterioration of the characteristics or any change of the outer electrodes quality.

(1) Cleaning Conditions

• Please keep mounted parts and a substrate from an occurrence of resonance in ultrasonic cleaning.

• Please do not clean the products in the case of using a non-washed type flux.

(2) Drying : Please fully perform cleaning and keep flux and cleaner components from remaining.

After cleaning, dry promptly this product.

5. Do not give this product a strong press-force nor a mechanical shock. Because such

mechanical forces may cause cracking or chipping of this product.

6. In your mounting process, observe the following points in order to avoid deterioration of the characteristics

or destruction of this product. The mounting quality of this product may also

be affected by the mounting conditions, shown the points below.

(1) Please mount this product by soldering. When mounted by other methods, such as conductive

adhesives,please contact us in advance.

(2) Recommendable Land Size (All dimensions in mm)

Please be careful that dimension of land pattern may cause the inclination or lift of products mounting.

(3) Printing Conditi

i. Recommendable thickness of solder paste printing shall be 80-100μm.

ii. Please be careful that too much solder cause Solder bridges.

(4) Recommendable Temperature Profile for Soldering

i. Insufficient preheating may cause a crack on body. The difference between

preheating temperature and soldering temperature shall be less than 100 deg.C.

ii. Rapid cooling by dipping in solvent or by other means is not recommended.

(5) There is a fear of unexpected failures (insufficient solder-wetting, etc.) in your

mounting process, caused by the mounting conditions. Please evaluate if this product is

correctly mounted under your mounting conditions.
