Sensistor is a resistor whose resistance changes with temperature. The resistance increases exponentially with temperature,〔U.A.Bakshi, A.P.Godse, ''Semiconductor Devices & Circuits'', Technical Publications Pune, India, 2008, ISBN 978-81-8431-298-0, page 295〕 that is the temperature coefficient is positive (e.g. 0.7% per degree Celsius).〔Proceedings of the Institute of Radio Engineers, Volume 48, Issues 10-12, page 1889〕 Sensistors are used in electronic circuits for compensation of temperature influence or as sensors of temperature for other circuits.〔(UC3704, Bridge Transducer Switch, Texas Instruments (accessed on 2010-01-14) )〕 Sensistors are made by using very heavily doped semiconductors so that their operation is similar to PTC-type thermistors. However, very heavily doped semiconductor behaves more like a metal〔Dharma Raj Cheruku, Battula Tirumala Krishna, Electronic Devices and Circuits, 2nd edition, 2008, Delhi, India, ISBN 978-81-317-0098-3〕 and the resistance change is more gradual than it is the case for other PTC thermistors. == See also == * thermistor 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sensistor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
