High signal strength makes it easy to incorporate into sensing circuitry without concern over electrical noise, so it can readily replace more delicate platinum sensors
SeMitec's latest product is the thin-film FT series thermistor.
Using thin-film technology and laser-trimming techniques, the FT thermistor is said to be accurate to +/-0.3C, very fast responding, and capable of operating from -40C to 400C.
Its small footprint and multiple fixing options (solder, gold-wire or epoxy-bonding) make the FT an extremely flexible product.
With a sensitivity of 5%/C and R25 values up to 360k, the FT's high signal strength makes it easy to incorporate into sensing circuitry without concern over electrical noise.
Thus the FT can readily replace more delicate platinum sensors in numerous commercial and automotive applications.
The FT can also be supplied with small axial leads to make it into a very fast-responding air or surface sensor.
The FL variant is glass encapsulated making it very stable and capable of operating up to 350C.
