Calculators for Temperature and Thermistor Applications
Beta Value Calculator - The approximate relationship between the resistance and temperature for a NTC thermistor.
R – T (Resistance vs. Temperature Tables) – A table showing the standard resistance at each temperature point.
Steinhart-Hart Calculator - The Steinhart–Hart equation is a model of the resistance of a semiconductor at different temperatures.
where:
T is the temperature (in kelvins)
R is the resistance at T (in ohms)
A, B, and C are the Steinhart-Hart coefficients which vary depending on the type and model of thermistor and the temperature range of interest. (The most general form of the applied equation contains a (ln(R))2 term, but this is frequently neglected because it is typically much smaller than the other coefficients, and is therefore not shown above.)
Basic Thermistor Formulas
To find degree tolerance – Add standard part tolerance to maximum deviation and divide by the NTC value.
To find percent tolerance – Multiply degree tolerance by NTC value.
