A Thermistor is used in many devices that require a temperature reading. These can include fire alarms or vehicle engines. They range in sizes depending on the use. For example it can be small enough to fit onto a circuit board, or big enough to plug a hole in a hose.

∙ 14y agoA thermistor could be used to measure temperature, because its resistance is a function of its temperature. By the same reasoning, a thermistor could be used to temperature compensate a circuit. The best example of this is in the regulator, where the ambient temperature controls the charge voltage, because charge state in a battery is a function of temperature.

Thermochromic is used in some liquids to show the temperatures of bodies by changing their colour with the temperature of the body.
A Thermistor Is essentially a variable resistor. The resistance of the thermistor changes with temperature. They're often used to regulate heating elements - like those found in cookers.
While some people use a much more exhaustive and precise testing procedure, a very simple test can uncover the most common problems with a thermistor: * measure the resistance of the thermistor at room temperature with an ohmmeter. If this resistance is 0 (short) or infinity (open), then something is connected incorrectly or the thermistor has been destroyed. (These are the most common problems). If that test looks good, then a followup test can uncover nearly all the remaining possible problems with a thermistor: * put icewater in a ziplock bag and press it against the thermistor. Then measure the resistance of the themistor at freezing. The two measured values of resistance are usually adequate to identify what kind of thermistor it is. If both values are practically the same, then it's not really a thermistor -- perhaps someone has accidentally substituted a resistor. If one or both values are not the expected values, perhaps someone has accidentally substituted a different kind of thermistor.
A: A potentiometer is a manual device to change the resistance A thermistor changes as a function of environment temperature
A therm is used by gas companies to convert the volume of gas used to the equivalent of heat. It then calculates the actual energy used.
I hope you mean the thermistor. If so,well it does not obey Ohms law. When current flows through the thermistor its temperature start increasing which reduces the resistance of the thermistor. A reduction in resistance at the same supply voltage will cause the current to increase. Thus it's not obeying Ohms law.
No, the resistance of a thermistor is typically measured in ohms. The relationship between the resistance of a thermistor and temperature is nonlinear, and it is used to calculate the temperature of the thermistor in degrees Celsius.
A thermostat is a device that measures and controls temperature in a system, often used in heating and cooling systems. A thermistor is a type of resistor that changes resistance based on temperature, typically used for temperature sensing or controlling circuits. In summary, a thermostat is used to control temperature, while a thermistor is used to measure temperature.

A: a thermistor will change with temperature so if temperature becomes unsafe its output is monitored and other circuit will shut down the electronics . It can also be used as a controlling device whereby temperature is involved

A Thermistor Is essentially a variable resistor. The resistance of the thermistor changes with temperature. They're often used to regulate heating elements - like those found in cookers.
Thermistors are typically made from metal oxides such as manganese, nickel, cobalt, or iron. These metal oxides are mixed with a ceramic binder and then sintered to form a compact thermistor element.
The symbol of a thermistor is a resistor with an arrow pointing towards it.
A RV absorption refrigerator uses a thermistor as a thermostat. The thermistor is moved up or down to regulate the refrigerator temperature.
A thermistor is a type of resistor whose resistance changes with temperature, typically used for temperature sensing. A sensistor is a sensor that measures changes in electrical properties in response to changes in environmental conditions, not specifically limited to temperature sensing. In summary, a thermistor is a specific type of sensor, while a sensistor is a broader term for various types of sensors.
A thermistor works in temperature sensing applications to measure changes in temperature based on its resistance. It is commonly used in electronic devices, medical equipment, and automotive systems for temperature monitoring and control.
