In stock at authorised distributor Mouser Electronics are the RTD and NTC surface-mount temperature sensors from TE Connectivity/Measurement Specialties.
These sensors are designed specifically for space applications.
The platinum-coated and NTC glass-coated sensors are welded to 26 AWG polyimide-insulated twisted-pair wires and encapsulated in a thermally conductive epoxy resin on a flat aluminium housing.
Construction is based on TE Connectivity‘s established ESA-qualified NTC thermistor probe and electroceramic formulation, which has been used in the industry for over 25 years, offering proven performance and outstanding reliability.
These surface-mount temperature sensors are ideal for temperature control, monitoring, and compensation in solar power and low-temperature, low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellite applications.
The devices are also suitable for payload equipment, guidance and navigation equipment, servers and data centres, aerospace applications, and other harsh environments.
