The main characteristics of thermistor

Thermistors are widely used in home electric power industry, communications, capacitors, military science, aerospace and other fields, and the development prospects are extremely broad. What are the main characteristics of the thermistor, together with the progress of the editor to understand.

Thermistor characteristics are as follows:

1. High sensitivity, the temperature coefficient of resistance is 10 to 100 times greater than the metal, can detect the temperature change of 10-6 °C;

2. Operating temperature range is wide, room temperature device is suitable for -55 °C ~ 315 °C, high temperature device temperature is higher than 315 °C (currently up to 2000 °C), low temperature device is suitable for -273 °C ~ -55 °C;

3. Small in size, able to measure the temperature of voids, cavities, and blood vessels in the body that other thermometers cannot measure;

4. Easy to use, the resistance value can be arbitrarily selected from 0.1 to 100kΩ;

5. Easily processed into complex shapes for mass production;

6. Good stability and strong overload capacity.
