Column Heading Definitions:
Resistance Ratio – The ratio of the resistance at temperature “t” to the resistance at 25 °C. To determine the resistance of a thermistor at a temperature point other than 25 °C, multiply the given resistance ratio by the resistance at 25 °C.
NTC – The Negative Temperature Coefficient of resistance is the % change in resistance per change in temperature, expressed in units of −%/°C. To determine the approximate % resistance tolerance of a thermistor at a particular temperature, multiply the given NTC value by the temperature tolerance at that temperature.
Point Matched – For thermistors with a specified tolerance at a single temperature point, the manufacturing tolerance is used to determine the tolerance at other temperature points. Typically, thermistors are specified at 25 °C. To determine the resistance tolerance at another temperature point, add the manufacturing tolerance to the specified point matched tolerance. For example, a thermistor with a ±10 % resistance tolerance at 25 °C has a ±11.4 % tolerance at 0 °C. Point matched thermistors should typically not cycle or operate continuously above 105 °C.
Interchangeable T2A Code – An interchangeable tolerance means that a thermistor has a temperature tolerance specified over a temperature range. For example, a “T2A” code indicates a ±0.2 °C temperature tolerance from 0 °C to 70 °C. Typically, interchangeable thermistors should not cycle or operate continuously above their specified temperature range.
