What is the difference between positive and negative temperature coefficient of resistance?

Negative temperature coefficient of resistance means that as the temperature of a piece of wire or a strip of semiconducting material increases, the electrical resistance of that material decreases.


What are disadvantages of fast breeder reactor?

The main disadvantage is the positive temperature coefficient of reactivity.


What type tempcoefficient does the zener diode have?

negative tempareture It depends on the reverse voltage. Up to about 5.6 volts, the zener has a negative temperature coefficient. Beyond 5.6 volts it begins to show a positive temperature coefficient.


What happens when the temperature of a forward biased diode is increased?

What happens depends on the temperature coefficient of the diode. If that diode has a positive temperature coefficient, it resistance increases with increased temperature. A diode with a negative temperature coefficient does the opposite.


What is the difference between PTC and NTC resistors?

positive temperature coefficient vs. negative temperature coefficient resistance increases or decreases with increase of temperature, respectively.


What is the relationship between resistance and temperature?

• ntc 'negative temperature coefficient': its resistance decreases as the temperature increases• ptc 'positive temperature coefficient': its resistance increases as the temperature increases


How the resistance of conducting material vary with temperature?

Well, there's typically two types of materials-Those with positive temperature coefficient and those with negative temperature coefficient. Positive temperature coefficient are those whose resistance increases as temperature increases. Negative temperature cofficient are those whose resistance decrease when the temperature increase. There are however some alloys such as Manganin& Constantan whose resistance is not affected by temperature


What do you mean positive temperature co-efficient and negative temperature co-efficient of temperature?

A positive temperature coefficient means that the resistance of a material increases as temperature increases. Conversely, a negative temperature coefficient means that the resistance decreases as temperature rises. These coefficients are important in understanding how materials respond to changes in temperature and are commonly seen in the properties of semiconductors and resistors.


Why does the resistance of a thermistor decrease as the temperature rises?

Some materials have negative temperature coefficients of resistance, and some have positive temperature coefficients. Carbon is an example of a substance with a negative thermal coefficient of resistance, so it's resistance will decrease as it gets hotter.


If a carbon resistor increases in temperature its resistance will?

This depends on the type of conductor. If the conductor has a positive coefficient the resistance will increase. If the conductor has a negative temperature coefficient the resistance will decrease.
