Thermal Sensors MOXIE ® (NTC) FEATURES – high sensitivity – quick reaction – hysteresis approx. 3–6 °C – excellent reliablility – long service life – no selecting, no adjusting – no corrosion of contact surface as semi-conductor – no +/– polarity – can be used as logical control element – isolated casing – easy installation – can be delivered in chip form TS3 TS3 B3 TS3 C3 CONSTRUCTION Moxies are a family of variable resistance thermal sensors having a highly specific “transition region”. Within this transition region the devices typically exhibit a negative temperature coefficient ranging from 40 % per °C to 300 % per °C. Below the transition region they exhibit a linear “thermistor” characteristic of –2 to –4%/ °C. Moxies are available in a TO – 18 transistor package (code TS 3) with two lead-wires, or as individual, trimmed clips. The Moxie is a solid state component produced by thin film technology. A sapphire die is mounted on a gold plated header and connected to the therminals by gold-wire bonding. APPLICATIONS Sensors for temperature protection, control and limiting. Voltage, current and frequency limiters in electronics. Examples: Overtemperature protector for power semi-conductors, such as transistors, power output stages, amplifiers. Temperature control of electronic appliances and electric equipment. Temperature sensor for signalling systems and fire detectors . Control of componentry in industrial and entertainment electronics. Protection of electronic circuits, such as computers or battery chargers. 10-04-01 1000-Y-600 DIMENSIONS CANTHERM 8415 Mountain Sights Avenue • Montreal (Quebec), H4P 2B8, Canada Tel: (514) 739-3274 • 1-800-561-7207 • Fax: (514) 739-290 E-mail : [email protected] • Website: www.cantherm.com TS3 2 10-04-01 1000-Y-600 3 10-04-01 1000-Y-600 TS3-XX TS3-XXB3 TS3-XXC3 Technical data and availability are subject to change without notice.
