Resistor: - EG0037
\n\nResistors are fundamental electronic components that restrict the flow of electric current. They are crucial in controlling voltage levels, limiting current, and adjusting signal levels within circuits. Resistor values are measured in ohms (Ω), and they come in various types including fixed and variable resistors.\n\nThermistors:
\n\nThermistors are specialized resistors whose resistance varies significantly with temperature changes. They are used for temperature sensing and compensation in electronic circuits. Thermistors can be categorized into NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) and PTC (Positive Temperature Coefficient) types based on how their resistance changes with temperature.\n\nResistance Temperature Device (RTD):
\n\nAn RTD, also known as a resistance temperature detector, is a type of temperature sensor that operates on the principle that the resistance of a metal increases with temperature. RTDs provide highly accurate temperature measurements over a wide range and are commonly used in industrial and scientific applications where precision is essential.\n\nNTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) Thermistor:
\n\nAn NTC thermistor is a type of thermistor where the resistance decreases as the temperature increases. This characteristic makes it suitable for applications requiring temperature measurement and compensation, such as in automotive, HVAC systems, and consumer electronics.\n\nThermistor Use:
\n\nThermistors find extensive use in various electronic devices and systems for temperature monitoring, thermal protection, and temperature control. Their sensitivity to temperature changes allows for precise regulation in applications ranging from medical devices to industrial equipment and environmental sensors.\n\n\n\n\n\n
