Temperature Sensors
https://www.electronics-lab.com/article/temperature-sensors/
This article introduces temperature sensors that detect heat using either direct physical contact or non-contact methods like radiation and convection. It also introduces a few popular types, including bending bi-metallic strips, thermistors, and RTDs.
PWM Temperature Controlled FAN using TC648 and NTC sensor
https://www.electronics-lab.com/pwm-temperature-controlled-fan-using-tc648-and-ntc-sensor/
The project described here is a switch mode fan speed controller for use with brushed or brushless DC motors. Temperature proportional speed control is accomplished using pulse width modulation (PWM). 10K Ohms NTC is used to sense the temperature. The project is built using TC648 chip and configured with auto-shutdown mode. In Auto-Shutdown mode, fan […]

Temperature Measurement with NTC Thermistors
https://www.electronics-lab.com/temperature-measurement-ntc-thermistors/
Philip Kane @ jameco.com discuss about how to measure temperature with NTC thermistors. He writes: Thermistors (thermal resistors) are temperature dependent variable resistors. There are two types of thermistors, Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) and Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC). When the temperature increases, PTC thermistor resistance will increase and NTC thermistor resistance will decrease. They exhibit […]
Temperature controlled Fan
https://www.electronics-lab.com/temperature-controlled-fan-2/
Ahmad Al-Shalabi and Bassma Karbouj show us how to control a DC fan using easy to find components. The fan works when temperature reach into pre-specified threshold. The purpose of this project is creating a cooling system by controlling in a DC fan in a simple way without using Microcontrollers or Arduino but by using […]
