I am working on making changes to an electronics design. The circuit board is powered by a 24V battery.
There is a PTC resetable fuse on the boards power input, the data sheet for the part indicates that the maximum voltage is 15Vdc. I would assume that in a fault condition the whole 24V will be accross the PTC.
Is there something I am missing about the Maximum Voltage rating of PTC resetable fuses that would make the part suitable?
This is the first time I am using a PTC device in a design.
The part is:SMD250F-2 (link to specification below)
