The temperature signal connected to V
voltage in the range of 1.25V to 2.65V (typical) for 0%
to 100% of the temperature range of interest. The
circuit in Figure 5-2 illustrates a convenient way to
provide this signal.

the parallel combination of RT
to as R
temperatures is obtained from the manufacturer’s
specifications. Thermistors are often referred to in
terms of their resistance at 25°C.
Generally, the thermistor shown in Figure 5-2 is a non-
linear device with a negative temperature coefficient
(also called an NTC thermistor). In Figure 5-2, R
used to linearize the thermistor temperature response
and R
coefficient at the V
configuration produces an output voltage delta of 1.4V,
which is well within the range of the V
specification of the TC646. A 100 k NTC thermistor is
selected for this application in order to keep I
minimum.
For the voltage range at V
2.65V, the temperature range of this configuration is
0°C to 50°C. If a different temperature range is required
from this circuit, R
resistance value of the thermistor at the center of this
new temperature range. It is suggested that a maxi-
mum temperature range of 50°C be used with this cir-
cuit due to thermistor linearity limitations. With this
change, R
