A thermistor is a temperature-sensitive passive electronic component whose resistance changes significantly with temperature. The term thermistor is derived from Thermally sensitive resistor. Unlike standard resistors whose resistance remains nearly constant over temperature, thermistors are designed to exhibit large, predictable resistance variations with temperature changes. Thermistors are widely used in: Temperature measurement and control Over-temperature […]

Thick Film Resistor Construction, Working, Types and Applications
A thick film resistor is one of the most widely used fixed resistors in modern electronic circuits. It is manufactured by depositing a resistive paste (thick film) onto a ceramic substrate and then firing it at high temperature to form a stable resistive layer. Due to its low cost, mechanical robustness, and compatibility with mass […]
