NTC & PTC Thermistor Specifications

Full specifications for the Chip NTC Thermistor series and the Chip PTC Thermistor series: model tables, part-number structure, dimensions, reliability, packaging and soldering.

Chip NTC Thermistor

Chip NTC Thermistor

  • Monolithic ceramic chip in footprints from 0201 to 1206, built for dense SMT boards
  • Ends plated in three layers that wet readily and withstand thermal shock — process them on reflow or wave lines
  • Very little parasitic capacitance, so the sensor reacts quickly
  • Rated for −40 to +125 °C operation

Chip PTC Thermistor

Chip PTC Thermistor

0603 chip PTC thermistor. Resistance remains nearly constant up to the Curie point — defined as the temperature at which resistance reaches twice its 25 °C value — and then rises sharply, so the circuit can detect over-temperature at a defined resistance threshold.

Storage

  • −10 to +40 °C, ≤70% RH, use within 6 months (first-in, first-out)
  • Avoid corrosive or reducing gases (e.g. HCl, H2S), flammable gases, oil, water, chemicals and direct sunlight
  • After opening, reseal promptly or store in a sealed container with desiccant
  • Solderability is guaranteed for 3 months from delivery under these conditions; re-check before use after that

Hand soldering

  • Iron power ≤30 W, tip diameter ≤1.0 mm
  • Preheat 150 °C / 60 s
  • Tip temperature ≤350 °C, ≤3 s, once only
  • Do not touch the terminations with the iron tip

Profiles are for reference; the actual profile depends on your board design, solder paste and process.

Datasheets & documents

Request a datasheet

Series datasheets (Chip NTC Thermistor, automotive-grade 0603 NTC, Chip PTC Thermistor) with full R–T data, and third-party RoHS, REACH (SVHC) and halogen-free test reports for the NTC series, are sent with your quotation or on request.

What to tell us
