Murata NCU NTC Thermistors

Murata NCU NTC Thermistors offer excellent solderability and stability in different conditions, ensuring lasting performance with high precision in resistance and B-constant. The Thermistors are available in two series, namely NCU15, and NCU18, with the additional option of AEC-Q200 qualified products for the automotive market. The NCU Thermistors are RoHS and REACH certified and can operate within the temperature range from -55℃ to 125℃. These thermistors are used in some consumer products and function as temperature sensors for rechargeable batteries, contribute to temperature compensation in LCDs, and play a role in the general temperature management of electric circuits.
