Interchangeable Thermistors for High-Accuracy Sensing

By Randy Frank | October 11, 2016

Share

Interchangeability over a broad temperature range that accu-curveeliminates the need to individually calibrate or provide circuit compensation for part-to-part variability is a key design attribute for many sensors. For thermistors, that is exactly what Ametherm’s ACCU-Curve NTC thermistors deliver. In addition, the thermistors have long-term stability and reliability for high-accuracy temperature sensing, control and compensation in medical, industrial and automotive applications.

The epoxy-coated devices:

  • Are offered diameters of 2.4 mm and 32 AWG tinned-copper leads,
  • Are available in four resistance values at 25 °C — 2.252 kΩ, 10 kΩ, 30 kΩ, 100 kΩ,
  • Have tolerances of ± 0.2 °C between 0°C and 70°C, and
  • Feature a dissipation constant of 1 mW/°C and thermal time constant of 10s.
