Adafruit 10K Precision Epoxy Thermistor

This epoxy-coated precision 1% 10K thermistor provides an effective means to measure temperature in both weather conditions and liquids. It is an affordable and reliable option for various applications.

The device demonstrates a resistance of 10K ohms at 25 °C with a tolerance of ±1%. As temperature increases, the resistance decreases, and conversely, it increases as it becomes cooler. A comprehensive lookup table is available for specific temperature-to-resistance conversions.

Ideal for applications such as air conditioners and water lines, it is designed for use in environments that may be damp. The PVC-coated wires are rated for temperatures up to 105 °C, making it unsuitable for extremely high-temperature settings.

Included is an additional 1% 10K resistor, useful for calibration or integrating into a resistor divider circuit. A comprehensive tutorial is available for guidance on using thermistors with both Arduino and CircuitPython platforms.
