Thermistors: What they are and how they work

  • March 2014
  • Number of views: 10148
Article

Thermistors, derived from the term thermally sensitive resistors, are a very accurate and cost effective method for measuring temperature. Thermistors are usually two-terminal semiconductor devices made from semi-conductor materials that have an electrical resistance that varies non-linearly with temperature. Some materials provide better stability while others have higher resistance ranges and are fabricated into smaller thermistors. Each specificthermistor has its own unique resistance versus temperature characteristic.
