NTHS0603N05N5002JR Datasheet/PDFNTHS0603N05N5002JR Application Field and Working Principle
NTC thermistors are temperature-sensitive devices that are widely used for temperature sensing applications. The NTHS0603N05N5002JR is an NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor from the family of TAKAMISAWA NTC thermistors. It is a very small surface-mount component that has high accuracy and consistency due to its carefully designed manufacturing process and it has the smallest size in the TAKAMISAWA family. With its excellent qualities, it is suitable for applications in a wide range of fields including automotive, medical, industrial and telecommunication and consumer electronics.
Application Field
The NTHS0603N05N5002JR has a wide temperature sensing range of -40°C to 125°C with an extremely high accuracy of 1% tolerance rate. It is this thermistor’s low temperature coefficient, which makes it suitable for temperature sensing and controlling applications in automotive, medical, industrial and consumer electronics, and telecommunication. In the automotive industry, it is often used for vehicle temperature sensing systems such as engine temperature sensors and climate control systems. In the medical field, it is frequently used in medical equipment for measuring patient’s body temperature. In the industrial field, it is used for controlling the temperature in heaters. It is also used in consumer electronics like mobile phones, digital cameras and televisions for controlling the temperature of the circuit boards and microchips. In the telecommunication industry, it can be used in base station signal amplifiers for temperature sensing.
Working Principle
The NTHS0603N05N5002JR Thermistor is a temperature sensing device. It works by sensing the temperature change and varying its resistance accordingly. When the temperature decreases, its resistance decreases at a rate of 5.9 Ω/°C. The device has an operating temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, and its resistance range is from 5.0 Ω to 15.0 Ω at 25°C. The thermistor is usually connected to a circuit for sensing the temperature and generating a signal in order to control the device. In the circuit, the thermistor is in series with a resistor. When the thermistor senses a temperature change, its resistance changes accordingly and this causes a voltage drop across the resistor. The voltage is then interpreted by a microprocessor as a voltage representing the temperature and used for controlling the operation of the device.
Conclusion
The NTHS0603N05N5002JR is a small surface-mount NTC Thermistor, which is used for temperature sensing and controlling applications in automotive, medical, industrial and consumer electronics, and telecommunication. It is very reliable and accurate due to its carefully designed manufacturing process. The thermistor works by sensing the temperature and varying its resistor accordingly. It is connected to a circuit for sensing the temperature and generating a signal for controlling the device.
