DESCRIPTION

· Silicon-based PTC thermistor with linear resistance change across temperature.

· Nominal resistance of 47 kΩ at 25 °C with ±1% maximum tolerance (0 °C to 70 °C).

· Wide operating temperature range from -40 °C to +150 °C.

· Consistent sensitivity with 6400 ppm/°C TCR at 25 °C and 0.2% typical TCR tolerance.

· Fast thermal response time of 0.6 s (DEC).

· Long lifetime with robust performance, including built-in fail-safe for short-circuit failures and 0.5% typical long-term sensor drift.

FEATURES

· Linear thermistor offering linearity and consistent sensitivity for simple and accurate temperature conversion.

· Low power consumption and small thermal mass minimize self-heating impact.

· Built-in failsafe behavior at high temperatures and strong immunity to environmental variations.

· Small size allows close placement to heat sources and quick response times.

· Advantages over NTC thermistors include no extra linearization circuitry, minimized calibration, less resistance tolerance variation, larger sensitivity at high temperatures, and simplified conversion methods.

APPLICATIONS

· Temperature monitoring in HVAC, thermostats, industrial control, and appliances.

· Thermal compensation for display backlights and building automation.

· Thermal threshold detection in motor control and chargers.
