Question:
A thermistor has the following characteristics at 16°C: resistance change of -12%/°C and Ro=8k. It is going to be used to measure temperature between 14°c and 18°C in a voltage divider arrangement where R1=10k and R2=Thermistor Resistance. The circuit is powered by a 10V source:
A)Determine the output voltage limits of the in the measurement range.
B)What is the output voltage when 17.5°C is measured?
C)Sets the voltage divider output voltage signal to a final range of 0 to 5V. (use necessary OpAmps settings).
Hint: Consider that ∆T=T-Tant , where Tant is the previous measurement temperature. Remember that thermistors require an iterative calculation in small steps.
