A micrometer-scale ceramic thin-film thermistor cuts thermal mass for faster, precise temperature sensing in space-limited electronics.
An inorganic cover layer tunes thermistor baseline resistance through electron tunneling while preserving temperature-dependent sensitivity.
Separated current and voltage electrodes create equipotential sensing points, eliminating voltage-drop error in precision resistance measurement.
A second resistive body welded at a separate position lowers shunt resistance while preserving weldability, current flow, and lower heat generation.
A 10-60 μm plating layer buffers thermal expansion mismatch in mounted chip resistors, reducing solder stress and crack formation.
A shifted varistor-region layout and three-sided electrode structure cut stray capacitance and reduce capacitance variation in compact electronics.
A heat-resistant wrapper on the slider helps a thermally protected varistor break 50 A+ arcs without melting or catching fire.
