Inrush Current Limiters (ICL), such as the SL12 20003, are electrical components specifically designed to protect against a sudden surge of current in an electric circuit. The most common form of an ICL is a resistor in series with a capacitor, which acts as a "soft start", allowing the current to gradually ramp up. This prevents system shock caused by a sudden and unpredicted surge of current, and helps maintain the electrical system\'s stability.

The basic operation of an ICL such as the SL12 20003 is based on the principle of Ohm\'s law, which states that the voltage drop across a resistor is equal to the current through the resistor multiplied by the resistance of the resistor. Since electricity must pass through the resistor to reach the capacitor, the voltage drop across the resistor limits the maximum current that can flow. As the current increases, so does the voltage drop, increasing the resistance of the resistor, and thus limiting the current.

The actual design of an ICL, and its precise operation, is based on the application requirements. For example, the SL12 20003 in particular has a resistance at maximum current of 0.08 ohm, and an instantaneous current containing capacity of 6 amps over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This makes it ideal for use in 12V dc high-current applications.

To use an ICL in an electrical circuit, it is typically placed across the positive and negative terminals of the power supply, with an appropriate number of circuit protection devices such as fuses or breakers in series. This arrangement ensures that the ICL is able to protect the system from overcurrent, while still allowing for the desired current to flow.

The SL12 20003 is designed to prevent sudden surge currents that can damage components or cause fires. The long-term current handling capacity of the SL12 20003 is 6 amps, and its temperature range is -40°C to +85°C. The energy released in an overcurrent situation is quickly dissipated as heat, spread over a large area, to prevent damage. In addition, the SL12 20003 is RoHS compliant, making it an ideal choice for use in both commercial and consumer electronic applications.

The SL12 20003 is an efficient and reliable Inrush Current Limiter. It is designed to withstand overcurrents while minimizing stress on the entire circuit. In addition, its temperature range makes it suitable for a variety of applications. With its RoHS compliance, the SL12 20003 is a great choice for protecting components in both commercial and consumer electronic applications.
