Amphenol Advanced Sensors offers NTC based temperature sensors designed for accurate temperature measurement. These sensors utilize a 4th order polynomial equation to define their resistance/temperature characteristics, represented by a typical R/T curve. The product is suitable for applications where precise temperature sensing is required. An application spotlight highlights the use of NTC sensors in a voltage divider circuit, demonstrating how adding simple passive components can reduce linearization errors by up to 32% over an extended temperature range compared to a simple voltage divider.
