PTC temperature sensors have a special thick film as measuring active area which is applied on ceramic carriers.

This manufacturing process enables the production of precise and cost-effective temperature sensors.

With their advantages of high measuring accuracy and very good long time stability these measuring resistors have their application in the sectors of industry electronics, heating and air conditioning techniques, medicine technique and special electronic applications.
