Old-School Analog Temperature Control Circuits Solved With Modern LTSpice Thermistor Dynamic Models, Part 3

Part 3: Thermistor SPICE Models Make Sense With Older ICs, but What About a Newer One, Such as the LTC1041? It’s with a somewhat provocative title that we begin the third and last installment in this ...

Thermistors Need No Adjustment Between Sensor And Control Circuit

Applications requiring accurate temperature control compensation have new candidates for the assignment in the form of negative temperature coefficient thermistors. The highly precise thermistors are ...

Linear-RMS Phase Control Improves Thyristor-Based Thermostat

Precision temperature control circuits for small thermal loads like oscillator crystals and voltage references tend to be fairly easy to design. This is because simple, well-behaved, linear-output ...

Old-School Analog Temperature Control Circuits Solved with Modern LT spice Thermistor Dynamic Models, Part 2

This temperature profile is one of the principal reasons why we need a PID controller, which will be able to very accurately follow the required dwells and slopes, while also avoiding big oscillations ...
