Principles of designing high-current semiconductor thermistors

https://doi.org/10.46973/0201-727X_2025_1_141

Abstract

The connection of the design feature of high-current semiconductor thermistors (SCT) with some characteristics of the material of their body is considered. The purpose of this research is to study the non-uniform temperature field in the mass of a thermistor, since under certain conditions this can affect the stability of its operation. The results obtained confirm the position that the temperature gradients in the semiconductor mass of the thermistor obey a linear law both with respect to current and with respect to the distance from the axis of the thermistor. As a result of the research, the theoretical statement that temperature gradients are determined only by design parameters has been confirmed. As a consequence, coaxial type thermistors meet the basic requirements for improving the reliability of the SCT.
