Low-cost high-performance platinum microheater
A small fast-reacting microheater measuring only 9.5 x 1.9mm and suitable for use up to 500C has been launched by Heraeus Sensor-Nite.
Available in SMD 1206, SMD 805, TO92 and SOT 223 packages, these sensors are supplied in blister reels which are compatible with the latest automated assembly techniques.
They are suitable for use in most temperature measurement or temperature compensation applications especially where space is at a premium or fast response times are needed.
Based on established thin-film platinum technology, sensors are available with nominal resistances of 100 or 1000ohm at 0C and in two tolerance classes.
Temperature coefficient is positive and complies with the DIN EN 60751 standard.
Maximum drift over 1000h at 130C is 0.06%.
