NTC Thermistors

NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistors are temperature-sensitive resistors that are used as sensors in a wide range of applications. NTC thermistors are made from a special type of ceramic material that has a negative temperature coefficient, meaning that the resistance of the thermistor decreases as the temperature increases. This allows NTC thermistors to be used as accurate and reliable temperature sensors. NTC thermistors are commonly used in temperature sensing and control applications, such as HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems, refrigerators and freezers, and automotive systems. They are also used in medical and industrial applications, such as temperature sensing in medical devices and process control in manufacturing processes. NTC thermistors are typically small, compact, and inexpensive, and they are known for their high accuracy, fast response time, and wide temperature range. They are also highly durable and can withstand harsh environments, making them suitable for use in a variety of applications.
