Gold Electrode NTC Thermistor Chip: Performance Characteristics and Application Scenarios

The gold electrode NTC thermistor chip is manufactured using transition metal oxides such as manganese oxide, cobalt oxide, and nickel oxide as primary raw materials. These materials undergo high-temperature sintering to form a ceramic substrate, followed by precision lamination of gold electrodes onto both surfaces. The substrate is then precisely diced into chips of various sizes tailored to application needs. As a semiconductor resistive device, its resistance exhibits a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) effect, decreasing as temperature rises. Renowned for high precision, reliability, and stability, it is widely used for accurate temperature control across diverse fields.

Ⅰ.Performance Characteristics of Gold Electrode NTC Thermistor Chips

• Exceptional High-Temperature Resistance: The chip withstands extreme temperatures up to 200°C, ensuring long-term stability in harsh environments.
• High Precision and Stability: Gold electrode lamination enhances measurement accuracy, achieving temperature tolerances of ±0.3%, ±0.5%, or ±1%, while significantly improving system stability.
• Outstanding Reliability: Gold electrodes inherently prevent ion migration failures, surpassing materials like silver in long-term operational stability.
• Rapid Response: Exhibits high sensitivity to temperature changes, enabling swift resistance adjustments ideal for real-time monitoring.
• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Gold’s innate anti-corrosion properties ensure consistent performance in demanding conditions.

Ⅱ.Application Scenarios of Gold Electrode NTC Thermistor Chips

Leveraging its superior performance, the chip enables critical applications across industries:

• New Energy Vehicles: Monitors temperature in thermal management systems (e.g., IGBT modules) to ensure inverters operate within safe ranges, ensuring reliable powertrain performance.
• Network Energy Systems: Acts as a core temperature sensor in energy storage units, enabling precise thermal monitoring and intelligent control to prevent overheating, enhance efficiency, and extend battery lifespan.
• IoT Devices: Serves as a key sensing component in innovative equipment, delivering accurate temperature measurement and dynamic control to boost stability in complex environments.
• Smart Home Appliances: Integrated into household temperature management systems for real-time monitoring and regulation, improving safety and optimising user comfort through adaptive operation.
• Optical Modules: Deployed on laser heat sinks or TEC cooling ends near laser junctions to precisely monitor and regulate light source temperature. This stabilises optical power output, ensuring consistency and reliability in fibre-optic communication systems.
