Electric device with phase change material and parallel heater

The electric device ( 1, 100 ) has a body ( 2, 102 ) having a resistor ( 7, 107 ) comprising a phase change material being changeable between a first phase and a second phase. The resistor ( 7, 107 ) has a first electrical resistance when the phase change material is in the first phase and a second...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The electric device ( 1, 100 ) has a body ( 2, 102 ) having a resistor ( 7, 107 ) comprising a phase change material being changeable between a first phase and a second phase. The resistor ( 7, 107 ) has a first electrical resistance when the phase change material is in the first phase and a second electrical resistance, different from the first electrical resistance, when the phase change material is in the second phase. The body ( 2, 102 ) further has a heating element ( 6, 106 ) being able to conduct a current for enabling a transition from the first phase to the second phase. The heating element ( 6, 106 ) is arranged in parallel with the resistor ( 7, 107 ).
