Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a new AEC-Q200 qualified, glass-protected NTC thermistor in the widely used 0.5 x 0.5 x 1mm 0402 case size.
The Vishay BCcomponents NTCS0402E3104*XT combines a high beta (B25/85) value of 4311K with an electrical resistance value at +25°C (R25) of 100kΩ.
Fully glass-coated and protected, the thermistor offers tolerances down to ± 1% for both its R25 and B25/85 values for precise temperature sensing, protection, and compensation over a wide temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. The device offers ESD withstand of > 25kV in accordance with the Human Body Model (HBM).
With its industry-standard size, the NTCS0402E3104*XT provides a drop-in replacement for competing solutions in automotive LED modules, electronic control units, sensor clusters, battery packs, and camera, radar, and LiDAR modules, energy meters, office equipment, and industrial smoke and fire detectors.
Featuring an SMD construction with NiSn terminations, the NTC thermistor is suitable for wave or reflow soldering. RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the device is delivered on punched paper tape on reels in packages of 10,000 units. For fast design-in, a SPICE model is available.
