Additional Details

The PTCTT95R909GTE013 is a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor, meaning its resistance decreases as temperature increases. Its resistance at a specific temperature (typically 25°C) is a key parameter, and the datasheet should be consulted for the exact value and tolerance. Other important specifications include the B-value (a measure of the thermistor's sensitivity to temperature), the operating temperature range, and the maximum power dissipation. The thermistor is typically constructed from a ceramic material and encapsulated in a protective coating. Its small size and surface-mount design make it suitable for high-density circuit board assemblies.
