1. What is a Temperature Sensor?
A temperature sensor, or temperature transducer, is a device that senses temperature and converts it into a usable output signal. Widely used in daily life, temperature sensors are among the most common types of sensors. Advances in science and technolo...
Traditional thermistors, especially under conditions of high current, generate significant heat which can adversely affect both the thermistor and its operating environment. Typically, the thermistor chip and leads are directly soldered to the resistor chip. The cyclical thermal stress...
NTC thermistors are essential components used in various temperature detection, compensation, and control circuits. They play a critical role in converting temperature variations into necessary electronic signals within circuits. With societal advancements, these components have found...
Thermistors can generate significant heat, especially when large currents pass through them. This heat generation can adversely impact both the thermistor and its operational environment.
Traditionally, the welding between the thermistor chip and the conductive sheet invo...
With the increasing prevalence of household natural gas usage and the continuous evolution of safety standards, detecting natural gas in homes has become paramount for protecting lives and property. Various detection devices, including advanced infrared natural gas detectors, play a crucial r...
1. Both NTC and PTC are thermistors. What is the difference between them?
Answer: Thermistors are resistors whose resistance changes with temperature. According to the different temperature coefficients, they are divided into positive temperature coefficient thermistors (PTC) and negative temperatur...
In the information age, computers are already very familiar to us. The service life of computers is a concern for consumers and also a problem considered by computer manufacturers. Computer manufacturers first place a power-type NTC thermistor in the host when the computer is turned on...
There are many types of fire alarms. The more common ones are smoke alarms and temperature sensing alarms. Of course, these alarms should also be used according to the place and function of use. For example, they are needed in kitchens and smoking rooms with heavy oil fumes. Install te...
NTC temperature sensors are widely used due to their one-to-one correspondence between resistance and temperature, high temperature coefficient of resistance, and low price. Traditional NTC temperature sensors require the connection of NTC core components and electronic wires and the u...
The MF52B enameled wire miniature NTC temperature sensor developed by Nanjing Shiheng Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. has excellent performance advantages and successfully passed the high-performance test of high temperature, high humidity and high pressure, further proving its reliabi...
NTC temperature sensors generally consist of NTC thermistors as temperature probes (metal shells or plastic shells, etc.), extension leads, and metal terminals or connectors. Under a certain measurement power, the resistance value of the NTC thermistor will change with the temperature....
