Accurate and rapid responding temperature measurement can help air-conditioning systems achieve higher energy efficiency. TI's TMP61, a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) linear thermistor, offers high linearity and consistent sensitivity across the entire temperature range. Unlike metal and metal oxide-based NTCs, the TMP61 PTC is made of silicon, resulting in a linear relationship between resistance and temperature, as well as faster response times. In air-conditioning systems, the use of a single model of TMP61 silicon-based PTC temperature sensors can facilitate temperature detection at different locations with high resolution, while simultaneously simplifying material management.
