Abstract:
A circuit protection device (31) suitable for surface mounting on a substrate (19). The device has a laminar PTC resistive element (3) which is composed of a conductive polymer composition and is positioned between first and second electrodes (5, 7). Attached to the first electrode is a first electrical terminal (33) containing an electrically conductive material which has a first attachment portion (35) connected to a first flexible portion (39) by means of a first connection portion (47). At least part of the first flexible portion is free of attachment to the first electrode.

Abstract:
Electronic equipment comprising a wiring board, electronic component mounted on the wiring board and having a heat dissipation portion on the surface thereof, and an insulating heat dissipation plate thermally connected to the electronic component, wherein the heat dissipation portion is directly connected to the heat dissipation plate with heat conductive bonding materials. The heat dissipation plate is a ceramic plate having at least one land for connecting electronic component or a resin plate containing highly heat conductive material. By directly connecting the insulating heat dissipation plate to electronic component generating heat, an insulating plate between the heat dissipation plate and the electronic component used in a conventional method becomes not required. Consequently, it is possible to enhance a heat dissipation effect of electronic component in electronic equipment.
