NTCS0805E3502FLT - Vishay

NTCS0805E3502FLT Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended soldering temperature and time for NTCS0805E3502FLT?
  The recommended soldering temperature is 260°C (500°F) with a maximum soldering time of 10 seconds. It's essential to follow the recommended soldering profile to prevent damage to the thermistor.
• Can I use the NTCS0805E3502FLT in a high-humidity environment?
  While the NTCS0805E3502FLT is designed to operate in a wide range of temperatures, it's not recommended for use in high-humidity environments (>80% RH) without proper protection. Moisture can affect the thermistor's accuracy and long-term reliability.
• What is the self-heating effect of the NTCS0805E3502FLT?
  The self-heating effect of the NTCS0805E3502FLT is typically around 1-2°C (1.8-3.6°F) at a current of 1 mA. This means that the thermistor's temperature reading may be affected by the current flowing through it, especially at higher currents.
• Is the NTCS0805E3502FLT suitable for high-frequency applications?
  The NTCS0805E3502FLT is designed for low-frequency applications (up to 100 Hz). Using it in high-frequency applications (>1 kHz) may affect its accuracy and response time. It's recommended to consult with Vishay's application engineers for high-frequency applications.
• What is the recommended wire size and material for connecting to the NTCS0805E3502FLT?
  The recommended wire size is 30 AWG (0.05 mm²) or larger, and the material should be a copper or copper-alloy wire with a insulation rating suitable for the operating temperature range. This ensures reliable connections and minimizes thermal resistance.
