Every time an industrial power supply or motor-driven system starts up, it experiences a momentary surge of current — known as inrush current. This surge can be several times higher than the normal operating current and can cause stress, damage, or even failure of components such as fuses, rec...
NTC thermistors are indispensable in modern temperature sensing and compensation circuits — from automotive systems to consumer electronics. Yet, selecting the right thermistor starts with one often-overlooked step: understanding the datasheet. Misinterpreting key parameters can lead to poor p...
Are your currency counters protected against overheating? Have you ever considered what happens inside a currency counter after hours of continuous operation? Components like motors and transformers generate significant heat — and without proper temperature control, that heat can lead to count...
As embedded systems become more intelligent and power-aware, the ability to monitor temperature accurately has become essential. Whether you're designing a power supply, motor controller, battery pack, or IoT device, integrating an NTC thermistor is a simple yet powerful way to enable real-time ther...
In the race toward carbon neutrality, innovation often starts with rethinking the smallest components. NTC thermistors, though compact, play a crucial role in helping engineers design smarter, greener electronics. From preventing thermal inefficiencies to extending product lifespan, these passive se...
When you're designing systems that simply can't afford to fail — whether in EVs, industrial automation, or energy control — you need components that go beyond the standard. Moisture, chemicals, vibration, and extreme thermal shifts? That’s where glass axial NTC thermistors shi...
As summer approaches and global temperatures rise, air conditioning systems become essential for comfort and health. But have you ever wondered what keeps your AC system running efficiently, responding to heat, and preventing overload? One of the key components behind the scenes is the NTC thermisto...
As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to evolve, battery safety has become a defining factor in both performance and consumer trust. With high voltages, fast charging, and demanding thermal environments, temperature monitoring inside EV battery packs is no longer optional — it's mission-critical...
As a distributor of electronic components, one of the most important services you provide your customers is helping them find the right part — quickly and confidently. When it comes to thermistors, especially NTC thermistors, choosing the right model can impact everything from system accuracy...
Whether designing a next-gen power supply, building an automotive BMS, or upgrading a smart appliance, selecting the right thermistor is more complex than it seems. This Q&A addresses some of the most common and technical questions engineers ask when working with NTC thermistors.
Q1: What...
Introduction when designing a product that relies on temperature sensing, selecting the right thermistor package is just as critical as choosing the correct electrical specifications. Two of the most common types are glass-encapsulated thermistors and epoxy-coated thermistors. But how do you choose...
How thermistor material science impacts sensor performance? When it comes to temperature sensing, most engineers focus on the application, the accuracy, or the package style. But behind every high-performance thermistor lies an often-overlooked foundation: the ceramic material itself. Whether y...
