This paper examines the use of resettable polymer fuses for protecting offline Flyback converters. It uses a thermal model of the resettable fuse, surrounding solder pads and copper to optimize the trip time so that the converter is protected during overloads. There are two potential positions for the PTC in the circuit which are considered. One position is directly on the winding and the other position is beyond the control loop. Results are taken from the converter and compared with a simulation.
