NTC thermistor is a practical and low-cost solution to most temperature measurement applications. One of the circuits for temperature measurement is Wheatstone bridge with NTC thermistor as a bridge leg
NTC thermistor is a popular and simple solution for temperature control systems. The circuit below is control circuit that consists of thermistor and voltage comparator. The circuit converts temperature to comparator output voltage, and the voltage controls other switch components (such as transistor) to offer temperature control or over-temperature protection
Many semiconductors and ICs exhibit a positive temperature coefficient, which may cause some problems, such as poor accuracy. NTC thermistor with negative temperature coefficient offers temperature compensation and makes those devices to produce stable performance over a wide temperature range. The circuit below is a case of temperature compensation. Thermistor (RT) and linear resistor (Rp) are connected in parallel, and then are connected in series with components with positive temperature coefficient (RS). After compensation, the resistance becomes more stable in a wide operating temperature range.
The difference of NTC thermistor’s dissipation constant in liquid and that in the air or vapor enables it to detect the level of liquid and works as liquid level sensor.
