(Sorry for the On-Topic post, I'll try not to do it again!)
I haven't been able to figure out a suitable substitute for this DSC Electronics (Korea) device - they call it a "Limiting NTC Device" and the specs, such as they are, are:
DSC-5D-13 Voltage: 240 Imax: 3.8 Iss: 3.8 Max Load Capacitance (uF): 700 Class: C4 CA: #
Can anyone offer advice on a good replacement? This is used in a Samsung flat screen wall TV's power supply - TV model is UN55JU7100(FXZC), version AS02
Thanks!

It's just an in rush current limiter, just find something close. I'd buy a few, 3.5 to 4.5A devices and see which work the best.

The real thing seems to be available.
aliexpress sells it:
I know, was trying to find something closer.
Still Martin is right, it is just a thermister. I just was wondering if anyone had a better idea of what one to use as a sub.

I should have expanded, closer in the sense that the 5D-13 arriving in mid-October via Aliexpress, vs a suitable sub from Digikey which could be here overnight.
We did end up going the Aliexpress route.
OK, that is something I wasn't aware of, thanks!
Yeah, that happens sometimes to all of us.

Crap, you mean the spec was in the part number? 5D = 5 ohm, and the -13 is the diameter. Gah!
Thanks, wish the data sheet I downloaded from DSC had suggested that!

** FYI 5 ohms is the room temp resistance, while the size relates to the power dissipation.A 5 ohm one will drop to 0.5 ohms when hot - typically about 150C.
