1-7. Feature 3: Supports failsafe design (1)

Combination with temperature sensor ICs: Robust overtemperature detection solution with double protection.

Combination with temperature sensor ICs: Robust overtemperature detection solution with double protection.

The third feature of Thermoflagger™ is the support for failsafe design.
For example, by combining Thermoflagger™ and temperature sensor ICs, you can realize a robust overtemperature detection solution with double protection.
Temperature sensor ICs provide primary protection against overtemperature conditions while Thermoflagger™ and PTC thermistors provide secondary protection.
A robust overtemperature detection circuit can be composed by combining Thermoflagger™ with other protection ICs.
