Bourns releases two compact NTC thermistor series

Designed as a high-precision and compact temperature sensing and compensation solution, Bourns’ new NTC thermistors provide essential thermal management for today’s more sophisticated and sensitive mobile devices, home appliances, Li-ion battery packs, LCD displays, and other electronic equipment.

These new thermistors feature resistance that is inversely proportional to the temperature, enabling accurate temperature measurement. The advanced and high reliability design of the BTN02G and BTN04G series combines semiconducting ceramics and internal electrodes, providing the capability to uniformly and smoothly change resistance values over a wide temperature range. In addition to the standard ±3 percent and ±5 percent high-precision resistance tolerances, Bourns’ latest NTC thermistors are also available in ±1 percent and ±2 percent resistance tolerances. The series’ B-Value tolerance is highly accurate at ±1 percent, making them superior temperature sensing solutions.

Bourns BTN02G and BTN04G Series SMD NTC Thermistors are available now through Bourns’ authorised distribution partners, and are RoHS compliant and halogen free.
