I'm currently working on a project where I have to take into account the resistance of the in series PTC fuse, however after reading the datasheet I found two specs for resistance Rmin and R1max. I did a little more research and I came across this application note which states the following: "Figure 4 shows typical behavior for a PolySwitch device that is tripped and then allowed to cool. In this figure, we can clearly see that even after a number of hours the device resistance is still greater than the initial resistance. Over an extended period of time, the resistance will continue to fall and will eventually approach the initial resistance.However, since this time can be days, months, or years, it is not practical to expect that the device resistance will reach the original value for operational purposes" So my question basically my question is the use of R1max as the resistance of the PTC fuse the general consensus for engineering desing involving PTC fuses? Thanks
