Default AC trips circuit

I am running my window air conditioner on a 20 amp line run directly
to the breaker box. It runs fine for quite a while, through numerous
cycles, then trips the circuit when restarting itself. I am not very
knowlefdgeable in AC, but it seems to me the thermostat is shutting
off the compressor and trying to turn it back on too soon (about a
minute). Does this sound like a defective thermostat or is some other
circuitry involved?
Thanks,
kkri
