When we are change in temprature and no change in resistor so I call thermister is temp sensitive.

Sharda Prasad said:   1 decade ago
Thermistor is a kind transducer which converts thermal energy into electrical energy.

Nick said:   1 decade ago
Thermistor is special type of resistor.

1. When temperature is increased resistance decrease.
2. When resistance is increase temperature is decrease.

How to calculate the value of thermistor in airflow detector circuit?

Rakesh Mairembam said:   1 decade ago
Thermister can be of two types depending temperature coefficient, k.

If k is negative thermister is then called NTC or negative temp. Coefficient thermistor. And if, k is positive PTC thermistors.

Thermister are used to measure temperature. And this type of resistor used to calculate temperature.

Manoj said:   1 decade ago
Thermistor contain a variable resister. The resister value vary according to the variation on temperature.

Temperature =1/resistor.

Gopal said:   10 years ago
Because thermister having thermal property and which the component very sensitive due to some radiation which is by using anti static room.

Yes, @Manoj is correct.
