Everyone knows that the rapid development of science and technology is inseparable from the small contributions of electronic components. Although it is a small electronic component, do you know its application function? The editor will talk to you about the application of thermistors in different industries and understand the characteristics of their functions.
Using a thermistor in the battery circuit can detect excessive current or current overheating, thereby adjusting the charging rate. As a result, the current when the battery starts to charge will be relatively large, so that it can be quickly charged with a relatively large charging current in a relatively short period of time.
The smaller and smaller size of notebook computers also poses challenges for engineers. The motherboard of a computer is very sensitive to temperature, and the motherboard is very close to the heating power circuit. The increasing CPU frequency not only increases the speed of the CPU, but also makes its operating temperature higher. In this kind of occasion, the surface-mounted thermistor can respond quickly to protect against overheating, and it is also relatively easy to use, but sometimes it is impossible to install the thermistor in the required position. Combining the surface-mounted thermistor with a special-shaped strip line can place temperature-sensitive components at specific sensitive points, thereby further improving the protection capabilities.
The food and pharmaceutical industries also use temperature control during transportation to ensure product quality. In order to prevent partial or complete loss of the effectiveness of medicines, many medicines need to be accurately controlled in temperature and temperature during transportation. During the transportation, the temperature recorder constantly manages the transportation conditions. A typical recorder may be a set of test cards placed in different locations. It may contain internal thermistor components, external thermistor probes, or both.
