Information on the application of LTSpice modeling to Vishay's temperature sensors.
For compact applications, classic electrolytic capacitors are environmentally friendly alternatives and available for a wide range of rated voltages.
NTC thermistors and thin film PTC RTDs have temperature-dependent characteristics that are in essence not linear, even if the level of linearity is higher for RTDs than for NTC thermistors.
Most solid-state meters use a current transformer or shunt, energy metering IC, and LCD display. The IC measures voltage and current and generates a pulse output proportional to power.
An electric meter or energy meter is a device that measures the amount of electrical energy supplied to a residence or business. It is also known as (k)Wh meter.
Wirewound resistors are most commonly used for surge control and in-rush current protection. Vishay’s Z300-C axial cemented wirewound resistor series is a preferred resistor to meet this challenge.
Linear fixed resistors are classified as film, foil, composition, Power Metal Strip®, and wirewound resistors, depending on the material used.
