TEMPERATURE SENSOR TECHNIQUES

INDICATIONS

Thermocouples, NTC thermistors and RTDs are advantageous devices for remote temperature measuring and sensing.

  • Thermocouples are useful in applications where a wide temperature operating range is anticipated.

  • Thermistors are recommended for applications with a specified temperature range and where interchangeability without recalibration is required.

  • RTDs offer almost linear electrical output but can be fragile. RTDs are recommended for applications where accuracy over a wide temperature range is the most important factor.

 

Comparing thermocouples and thermistors

NTC thermistors are the most sensitive temperature sensors with an extremely fast response time. Microcircuit technologies enhance applications of NTC thermistors.
