Additional Details:
The TH11-3H103HT is an NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor, meaning its resistance decreases as temperature increases. Its resistance at a specific reference temperature (usually 25°C) is indicated by the "103" in the part number, where 103 represents 10 x 10^3 ohms or 10k ohms. The "HT" likely refers to a specific tolerance, packaging, or other characteristic unique to the Mitsubishi product line. Datasheets from Mitsubishi Materials would provide the exact resistance-temperature curve, tolerance, and other key specifications. The component's leads are likely designed for through-hole mounting.
