A temperature sensor is a component that senses temperature and converts it into output
signals. By material and component features, temperature sensors can be divided into two
types: thermal resistor and thermocouple. Thermistor is one kind of the former type. It is made
of semiconductor materials; most thermistors are negative temperature coefficient (NTC) ones,
the resistance of which decreases with rising temperature. Since their resistance changes acutely
with temperature changes, thermistors are the most sensitive temperature sensors.

alarm, domestic appliance, electronics devices, smart home system .
