Selecting the right sensor is a critical step in electronic system design, influencing accuracy, reliability, and long-term ...

Temperature sensor integrated circuits (ICs) have several advantages over negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors. For example, temperature sensor ICs have a much more linear response than ...

Temperature is the most widely measured physical variable and designers have many sensing options, among them thermocouples, RTDs, solid-state current-output sensors, and thermistors, to cite just a ...

Designers face many chal lenges when placing thermal-sensing components in embedded systems. The first comes in choosing the temperature sensor. It is often not obvious whether a thermistor, resistive ...

Thermistors, which range in price from 10 cents to approximately$25, find use in applications from automotive monitoringand exhaust-emissions control to ice detection, skinsensors, blood and urine ...

As discussed in the first article of this two-part series, there are different challenges involved in designing and optimizing thermistor-based application solutions. These are sensor selection and ...

Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) ceramics and thin films represent a pivotal class of materials in modern electronics, where their intrinsic property of decreasing electrical resistance with ...
