The CLM is a chip type surface mountable device that can protect against both overcurrent and overcharging. It comprises a fuse element to ensure stable operation under normal electrical current and to cut off the current when overcurrent occurs. It also comprises a resistive heating element that could be used in combination with a voltage detecting means, such as IC and FET. When overvoltage is detected, the heating element is electrically excited to generate heat to blow the fuse element to achieve overvoltage protection.
