A thermistor is a semiconductor type of resistor whose resistance is strongly dependent on temperature, more so than in standard resistors. The word thermistor is a ...
Thermistor: sometimes simplified to "R" for resistor RV: Varistor, variable resistor: S: Switch (all types, including buttons) sometimes "SW" is erroneously used SA: Spark arrester: T: Transistor: often changed to "Q", but sometimes "T" is used for bipolar transistors and "Q" for FETs. TC: Thermocouple: TP: Test point: TR, T: Transformer ...
Diagram of a bimetallic strip showing how the difference in thermal expansion in the two metals leads to a much larger sideways displacement of the strip A bimetallic coil from a thermostat reacts to the heat from a lighter, by uncoiling and then coiling back up when the lighter is removed.
The Steinhart–Hart equation is a model relating the varying electrical resistance of a semiconductor to its varying temperatures.The equation is = + + (), where is the temperature (in kelvins),
Remember that guidelines are not set in stone — rather, they're good rules to follow. For instance, if you’re 30 years old and earn $75,000, you should try to have that much saved in your 401(k).
Some Thermistors are given a "Climatic Category" in accordance with IEC 60068-1. This is a way of representing the temperature specifications of a thermistor using three different numbers separated by a slash (/). For example, a Climatic Category 55/155/56. The first number is the minimum operating temperature expressed in negative degrees Celsius.
