Temperature (NTC)
NTC (Negative Temperature Coeffi
cient),
is a particular type of thermistor.
NTC's are popular in the HVAC industry
due to their low cost, but have a limited
temperature range which makes them less
popular in general industry.
The biggest issue with their general
acceptance is that there is no standard
that covers inter operability between dif-
ferent thermistor manufacturers.
