Future Electronics Promotes EPCOS PTC Thermistors from TDK

Leave a comment

Pointe Claire, Quebec (realtimepressrelease) February 11, 2016 – Future Electronics, a global leading distributor of electronic components, recently announced immediate availability of EPCOS PTC thermistors from TDK, offering superior solutions for circuit protection.

PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) thermistors are able to offer more reliable protection than NTC thermistors in certain cases with particularly demanding temperature and power conditions. EPCOS PTC ICLs (Inrush Current Limiters) offer key benefits when used as ICL components for active inrush current limitation in certain applications.

The EPCOS SMD PTC Superior Series is ideal for over temperature sensing. The series is used to monitor potential overheating conditions and can be used as a current regulator, thereby offering a thermal shutdown as the applied current load decreases at high temperature.

Possible applications for these temperature limit sensors are power supplies such as AC/DC and DC/DC converters, battery chargers and packs or lamp ballasts. The SMD PTC thermistors can be used in the fan controllers of notebooks in order to avoid critical temperatures. In automotive electronics, they are suitable for applications such as the temperature monitoring of LED-based lighting systems.

Atophill: What Chinese Face Reading Says about Hillary Clinton

Leave a comment

Experts of the Chinese art of face reading, Erik Kanto and Ilona Kanto have written two books and produced one DVD about the subject. At this time, again, they will read the faces of the candidates running in USA’s presidential election. Not writing about their political opinions or other much spoken facts about them, but merely reading what their faces tell us, according to the Chinese art of face reading that has been practiced for more than 5,000 years.

Los Angeles, CA, USA — In face reading, personality traits are shown in the features and other facial markings. Face shape determines personality type and what profession is most suitable. The elements of Hillary Clinton’s face are Gold and Water. Her face-shape is rather round, and that gives her high cheekbones. They represent power both in business and public life but also in marriage. A balance of power is needed for success in human relationships as well as in the world and national affairs.

A person with high cheekbones tends to be domineering and wants to run things her way. Often, however, they are interesting people and others put up with them for the good qualities they also present. But in a marriage, the one who has higher cheekbones tends to declare where the table stands!

The Gold element makes this candidate suitable for high positions, because whatever she does, there is certain charm and delicacy. Gold personality alone would not be strong, but when she is a combination of Gold and Water, that brings more strength. Water personality is wealthy, diplomatic and flexible. Like water in nature, it is adjustable and finds the round shape.

The Gold element makes her suitable for public eye. In addition, she has cute dimples which even emphasize: She is supposed to be in front of the people!

Laugh lines represent longevity and are also indicators of vitality and good health. Her laugh lines are long and continue well under the mouth. It means she will live long and stay relatively healthy. Between the eyebrows, she has several vertical lines. Two vertical lines are normal and considered fortunate. Three are even better. Hillary Clinton has four and it is considered not so lucky. She has a tendency to scatter her forces and dissipate intellectual efforts.
