ELECTRICAL PTC THERMISTOR COMPONENT, AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed is an electrical positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistor component comprising a base (1), a first conductive layer, and a second conductive layer which are disposed on the front sides of the base (1), respectively. The surface area of the base (1) is free from the first conductive layer while the second conductive layer forms caps (31, 32) which are respectively arranged at the front end of the base (1). Also disclosed is a method for producing said PTC thermistor component. The first conductive layer (21, 22) is produced on main surfaces of a substrate (10) by means of sputtering before component sections are separated. The cap-shaped second conductive layer is produced on front sides of a separate component section in a dipping process.
