Panasonic ERTJ
Multilayer NTC Thermistors
FEATURES
● Temperature Coefficient of Resistance is negative, and it’s extremely large (–2.8 to –5.1 [%/°C]).● Various shapes, especially compact size components are available.
● Selection of resistance vale is comparatively free, it’s available from several tens Ω to several hundred kΩ. Recommended
APPLICATIONS
● For temperature measurement or temperature detection : Thermometer, temperature controller● For temperature compensation : Transistor, transistor circuit, quarts oscillation circuit, and measuring instruments Physical Characteristics of NTC Thermistors Thermistor is a resistor sensitive to temperature that is utilizing the characteristic of metal oxide semiconductor having large temperature coefficient. And its temperature dependency of resistance value is indicated by the following equation : [ ( )]R=R0 exp B 11 T T0 .....................................(1) T0 : Standard Temperature 298.15 K(25 °C) R0 : Resistance at T0 [K] B : Thermistor Constant [K] Temperature coefficient...
