Introduction to YGM1 C514 Temperature Sensors – PTC Thermistors

Temperature sensors are widely used in industrial and commercial applications. In particular, PTC thermistors are a popular choice for their high accuracy and robustness. The YGM1 C514 is a model of PTC thermistor, manufactured by Yang Gao Microelectronics. It is a key component for detecting changes in temperature and other environmental parameters. In this article, we will look at the application field and working principle of the YGM1 C514.

Application of the YGM1 C514

The YGM1 C514 is an exceptional thermistor for applications such as temperature sensing. Being a PTC thermistor, it extracts a high level of accuracy and precision in thermal sensing. It is frequently used in thermometers, refrigerators, and similar products for temperature measurement. Additionally, the YGM1 C514 is also used in electrical switches and circuit breakers to detect over-current and over-temperatures safely.Due to its ability to function in a wide temperature range from -20°C to 85°C, the YGM1 C514 can be employed in a variety of industrial and commercial settings. It is suitable for use in temperature measurement circuits, motor protection circuits, power system monitoring, and environmental monitoring. Therefore, this PTC thermistor is a great choice for applications where accurate temperature measurements are required.

Working Principle of the YGM1 C514

The YGM1 C514 works by changing its resistance with a variation of its surrounding temperature. It utilizes the principle of positive temperature coefficient, which states that the resistance of the thermistor increases by direct proportion to the temperature increase. This thermistor is also interconnected with another resistor, forming a voltage divider circuit. The rapport between the two resistors changes in proportion to the temperature, thus creating a voltage difference which is used to measure temperature. This principle is used in most circuits. The YGM1 C514 features a small resistance area which allows it to detect small changes in temperature. The thermistor also makes use of the idea of junctions between two semiconductor materials, to produce a variable electrical resistance that is dependent on temperature. It consists of a ceramic core surrounded by an oxidized metal film. The film serves as an electrical contact and creates the desired resistance.

Conclusion

The YGM1 C514 is an excellent thermistor that enables precise temperature measurements. It is suitable for applications such as electrical switches and circuit breakers, motor protection circuits, power system monitoring, environmental monitoring, and temperature measurement circuits. By exploiting the principles of positive temperature coefficient and junctions between two semiconductor materials, the YGM1 C514 is able to provide accurate readings in a wide temperature range.
