Choosing Correct Thermistors Thermistors are temperature-sensing tools that are sintered semiconductors. The device shows small changes in temperature based on large changes in resistance. Thermistors are made from a mixture of different metals and metal oxides. After the materials are mixed, the thermistor is formed to its required shape. Shaped can be customized and coating can be added to make form bead-style thermistors. There are two types of coating that are possible for thermistors, and this includes epoxy and glass. A glass coating is for high temperature applications. The normal range of temperature is -58 through 572 degrees Fahrenheit. Epoxy coating are the counter-point of glass, so it works best with low temperature.  Despite the difference between coatings, they are used to mechanically protect the thermistor and wire connections. The coating also protects against corrosion and humidity. Base resistance is important for a thermistor's performance. The...

Thermistor A  thermistor  is a specific type of resistor that uses sensors to help regulate cold and heat. They can do more than simply regulate temperature. They are also used for voltage regulation, volume control, time delays, and circuit protection. These products are made up of ceramic and metal oxides, but it also contains circuits and wires. These resistors have many practical applications both in terms of manufacturing and personal products. Below, we will be going over some of the different uses and applications for thermistors throughout multiple industries. Microwave For those who have used a microwave, you have used a thermistor. They are used in these machines to determine and maintain internal temperature. Without the resistor in the microwave, there is a possibility of overheating in the unit. This could lead to potential fires. Circuit Protector If you have a power supply or surge protector in your home or office then ...
