PTC Military Grade Thermistors
Dscc (Defense Supply Center, Columbus) issued
specification MIL-PRF-32192 dictating the performance
and inspection requirements for these devices which
includes a test for wire bonding integrity. Many leading
Aerospace companies around the world have selected these
components for their mission critical space flight applications.
Quality Thermistor has summarized the requirements of the
MIL-PRF-32192 specification on this catalog page. The
complete detailedMIL-PRF-32192 specification can be
obtained by contacting the DSCC.
The High-Rel Positive Temperature Coefficient chip
thermistor is designed for wire bonding applications
found in hybrid circuitry. The devices exhibit a linear
Resistance vs. Temperature curve approximating
0.7%/C which make them the ideal solution for
temperature compensation applications.
Quality Thermistor, Inc. is
AS9100 certified
