Thermistors, thermocouples, and RTDs for thermal management

August 31, 2021 By Jeff Shepard Leave a Comment

Thermal management is the ability to control the thermal environment of an electronic system. It is often associated with cooling heat-generating electronics, but it also encompasses generating heat in cold environments to maintain optimal system operation or power wax-based linear motors. As a result of the many uses for thermal management, a wide variety of […]

Fuses, eFuses, thermistors, and fusible resistors – which and when?

August 25, 2021 By Jeff Shepard 1 Comment

Fuses, eFuses, various types of thermistors, and fusible resistors can be used to provide varying levels of circuit protection. Fuses provide only the most basic level of overcurrent and short-circuit protection. Thermistors can be added to provide inrush current control, and a fusible resistor can provide both inrush current control and overcurrent/short-circuit protection. The most […]

NTC thermistors sport long-stability for e-mobility temperature sensing apps

June 23, 2020 By Aimee Kalnoskas Leave a Comment

B58703M1103A NTC thermistors

TDK Corporation presents the new B58703M1103A temperature sensor − specifically developed for demanding e-mobility applications, which call for significant long-term stability. The NTC sensor is designed for a temperature range of -40°C to +150°C, whereby a temporary load of up to 200°C is permitted. At 25°C, the rated resistance is 10 kΩ with a B25/100 […]

PTC thermistor

Murata Manufacturing has succeeded in commercializing the world’s smallest PTC thermistor (commonly known as a resettable fuse) in the 0201-inch size (0.6×0.3×0.3mm) for mobile devices, and has recently begun mass production of this device under the part number PRG03BC181QB6RL. As smartphones and mobile devices become increasingly multifunctional and more compact, demand is growing for smaller […]

Tiny linear thermistors offer 50% higher accuracy, high sensitivity, single-point calibration

February 18, 2020 By Aimee Kalnoskas Leave a Comment

thermistors

Texas Instruments expanded its temperature sensing portfolio to include linear thermistors that deliver up to 50% higher accuracy than negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors. The higher accuracy of TI’s thermistors enables operation closer to the thermal limits of the other components and the overall system, helping engineers maximize performance while reducing bill-of-materials (BOM) and total […]

NTC and PTC thermistors

by Hadi Ebrahimi-Darkhaneh, Texas Instruments For applications that employ temperature monitoring systems, measurement accuracy is a prime concern. Temperature sensors are affected by a variety of factors, including environmental conditions, manufacturing process variations, poor assembly, and nonideal biasing components. External components connected to temperature sensors (such as the power supply, an analog-to-digital converter [ADC] and […]

Error analysis in temperature sensing with NTC and silicon-based PTC thermistors: Comparing the Ratiometric and Absolute methods

October 16, 2019 By Aimee Kalnoskas Leave a Comment

thermistors

by Hadi Ebrahimi-Darkhaneh, Texas Instruments A thermistor is a resistive device specifically designed to vary resistance with thermal change, and therefore follows Ohm’s law. According to Ohm’s law, a current passing through a resistive component will produce a voltage drop across that component. This voltage is proportional to the magnitude of the component resistance and […]

CURRENT DIGITAL ISSUE

A frequency you can count on There are few constants in life, but what few there are might include death, taxes, and a U.S. grid frequency that doesn’t vary by more than ±0.5 Hz. However, the certainty of the grid frequency is coming into question, thanks to the rising percentage of renewable energy sources that…
