The present invention discloses a surface mountable device comprising a current-sensitive element and two electrodes. The current-sensitive element is composed of a PTC conductive composite, comprising at least one polymer and a conductive filler. The feature of the present invention is that the current-sensitive element is a three-dimensional bent structure so that the shape, length and height of the device can be varied according to the space of the circuit board and the resistance of the surface mountable device. Therefore, the mountable surface of the circuit board can be used more efficiently. Moreover, the area of the current-sensitive element of the present invention is larger than that of the conventional surface mountable device. Consequently, the normal resistance of the surface mountable device of the present invention is smaller than that of the conventional surface mountable device and the voltage endurance of the surface mountable device of the present invention is increased.

You must be using a *NIX family operating sytem. The term 'Mountable device' is the same as the removable device in Windows. It includes CDROMS, USB.

A "mountable" device is a device that stores data that you can then read from. For example, if you want to access data from a secondary hard drive, you would be "mounting" it. You do not mount the hard drive that your operating system is on when you access it, because it is already "mounted"; the operating system is already reading from it, because it mounted it when it booted up.
