The POZ2AN-1-503N-T00 is a thermistor manufactured by Murata Electronics North America, designed for temperature sensing and compensation in electronic circuits. This is a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor, meaning its resistance decreases as the temperature increases, making it suitable for a variety of temperature-related applications.

Applications

• Temperature sensing in consumer electronics
• Temperature compensation in automotive electronics
• Overheat protection in power supplies
• Temperature monitoring in battery chargers
• Industrial temperature control systems

Features

• Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC)
• High sensitivity to temperature changes
• Excellent long-term stability
• Compact size
• Reliable performance
• Leaded (T00) for through-hole mounting

Benefits

• Precise temperature measurement capabilities
• Improved circuit stability by compensating for temperature variations
• Safeguards against damage from overheating
• Easy to integrate into existing circuits

• Cost-effective temperature sensing solution

Additional Details

The POZ2AN-1-503N-T00 has a nominal resistance of 50 kOhms at 25°C. The 'T00' suffix refers to its specific packaging and lead configuration. This NTC thermistor’s behavior is characterized by its B-value, which describes the relationship between temperature and resistance. A higher B-value signifies greater sensitivity to temperature changes. Its small size and reliable performance make it well-suited for applications needing temperature monitoring and control.

When using this thermistor, be sure to minimize self-heating effects by managing power dissipation carefully, as this can affect the accuracy of temperature readings. Refer to the Murata Electronics North America datasheet for detailed specifications, including the B-value, resistance tolerance, operating temperature range, and thermal time constant. Its reliability and stability enable accurate temperature measurements in diverse conditions.
