Temperature and resistance of NTC temperature sensor applications

NTC temperature sensor is a thermistor sensor (measuring temperature range: -30°C to +200°C (-22°F to +392°F) waterproof probe). Its resistance value changes with temperature. NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) means that its resistance value is negatively correlated with temperature, that is, as the temperature rises, the resistance value will decrease; conversely, as the temperature decreases, the resistance value will increase. This characteristic makes NTC temperature sensor very suitable for measuring temperature.

The working principle of NTC temperature sensor is based on the characteristic that the resistance of semiconductor materials changes with temperature. Generally, the resistance of NTC temperature sensor decreases rapidly with the increase of temperature. This fast response speed makes it widely used in temperature control and monitoring.

There is a relationship between the resistance value and temperature of NTC temperature sensors, which is usually expressed as the Steinhart-Hart equation:

T = 1 / (R * ln(R / Rt)) – 1 / (Rt * ln(R / Rt))

Where (T) is the absolute temperature (K), (R) is the resistance value of the sensor (Ω), and Rt is the reference resistance value of the thermistor (Ω). This equation relates the resistance value of the thermistor to the temperature. By measuring the resistance value of the thermistor, we can calculate the corresponding temperature value using the Steinhart-Hart equation.

One of the key advantages of NTC temperature sensors is that they can provide high-precision temperature measurement while having a fast response time. This makes them widely used in many fields. For example, household appliances, automobiles, medical equipment, etc. In addition, NTC temperature sensors are more cost-effective than other types of temperature sensors, which is one of the reasons for their popularity.

NTC temperature sensors are also widely used in the field of industrial automation. In the industrial production process, temperature is a critical parameter and is essential for the control and monitoring of many production processes. NTC temperature sensors can help industrial equipment monitor temperature changes in real time, adjust process parameters in time, and ensure the stable production process.

In addition, NTC temperature sensors also play an important role in the medical field. In medical equipment, such as thermometers and blood glucose meters, NTC temperature sensors are used to measure human body temperature and monitor the health of patients. Accurate temperature measurement can help medical staff quickly detect abnormal conditions of patients and take timely measures to ensure the safety of patients.
