What is a NTC thermistor?

An NTC thermistor is an electronic component whose resistance value decreases as the temperature rises. It is used as a temperature sensor by detecting the difference in resistance. NTC thermistors are cheap because the materials are cheap and easy to process, and they are the most versatile of all thermistors. Moreover, it is a high-precision thermistor because the resistance value changes even with a minute change in temperature. It is widely used in household appliances and industrial equipment. There are lead type, chip type, disc type, thin film type, etc.
