Temperature Sensors – NTC Thermistors

NTC Thermistors are Temperature Sensors which are used in detecting the changes in temperature. Here, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors.

Application Field

B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors are used in wide variety of applications. These include temperature measuring and control, computer thermal management, home appliances and motor control. They can also be used for detecting the thermal overload protection in electronic circuits and for monitoring the temperature in automotive applications. In general, they are one of the most widely used temperature sensors in the industry.

Working Principle

The B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors are Negative Temperature Coefficients of Resistance (NTCR) devices. They have an electrically semi-conductive material which changes its resistive value when it is exposed to a temperature change. This means that when the temperature is increased, its resistance is decreased and vice versa.

At the same time, the B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors also exhibit a Temperature Coefficient of Resistance (TCR) which is a measure of the rate at which its resistance changes with respect to temperature. This means that the resistance of these thermistors increases with rising temperature, but at different rates for different operating ranges. For example, at low temperatures, the resistance of the thermistor rises rapidly with temperature. At higher temperatures however, the resistance increases much more slowly.

In addition, the B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors also have a self-heating effect which is the result of the energy released during the resistance change as the temperature increases. This self-heating effect can affect the accuracy of the readings if the thermistor is not properly calibrated.

Finally, the B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors also have a temperature range of -40 to +125°C, which allows them to be used for a wide range of applications.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the B57231V2103K60 NTC Thermistors are temperature sensors used for a wide range of applications. They have a Negative Temperature Coefficient of Resistance which allows them to detect a change in temperature and a Temperature Coefficient of Resistance which gives them a range of resistance values over different operating ranges. Additionally, their self-heating effect can also affect the accuracy of the readings if it is not properly calibrated. Finally, they have a temperature range of -40 to +125°C which makes them useful for a variety of applications.
