The TS-521 is an uncalibrated NTC 5 kΩ leaded thermistor with a baked on phenolic coating for durability and long-term stability.
These have solid nickel 30 AWG wires with Teflon insulation to provide insulation when assembled in a heat sink or plate with a lead length
of 3 inches (76 mm). They are ideal for measuring the temperature of a laser diode or other component during testing. These devices can be
calibrated with accuracies to ±0.05°C over their temperature range using the Steinhart-Hart model. Calibration instructions can be found in
ILX’s application note #4, “Thermistor Calibration and the Steinhart-Hart Equation.” Thermistor resistance vs. temperature conversion tables
can be found on the Vishay website. Last updated: September 25, 2005 |
