Temperature sensors on flexible film

19 November 2014 Test & Measurement

Murata will soon commence mass production of a range of surface-mounted NTC (negative temperature coefficient) temperature sensors packaged on a flexible printed circuit (FPC) film.

With an FPC thickness of approximately 100 μm, they can be easily routed inside complex designs and tight spaces.

Owing to their low heat capacity, the sensors exhibit excellent thermal responsiveness. Measuring 50 x 3,17 x 0,55 mm, they are ideal for sensing the housing temperature of smartphones and tablets, as well as use in wearable products for sensing body surface temperature. The FTNT55XH103FA1A050 can measure temperatures in the range of -40°C to + 125°C and has ±0,4°C accuracy at 25°C. Resistance at 25°C is 10 kΩ ±1%.
