SYNOPSIS
thermistor
DESCRIPTION
This component computes the temperature indicated by a thermistor in a voltage-divider ladder. It uses the Beta-parameter variant of the Steinhart-Hart equation, described here:

PINS
- thermistor.N.t0-c real in
-
Reference temperature of the thermistor, in degrees Celsius (typically 25 C). This must be set before the component can compute the thermistor temperature. The reference temperature information is supplied by the thermistor manufacturer.
- thermistor.N.r0 real in
-
Resistance of the thermistor at the reference temperature. This must be set before the component can compute the thermistor temperature. The reference resistance information is supplied by the thermistor manufacturer.
- thermistor.N.beta real in
-
Beta parameter of the thermistor (sometimes just called B). This must be set before the component can compute the thermistor temperature. The Beta parameter is supplied by the thermistor manufacturer.
- thermistor.N.r-other real in
-
Resistance of the other resistor in the voltage-divider ladder. This must be set before the component can compute the thermistor temperature.
- thermistor.N.v-total real in
-
Supply voltage of the voltage-divider ladder.
- thermistor.N.v-thermistor real in
-
Voltage drop across the termistor.
- thermistor.N.temperature-c real out
-
Temperature sensed by the thermistor, in degrees Celsius.
- thermistor.N.temperature-k real out
-
Temperature sensed by the thermistor, in Kelvins.
- thermistor.N.temperature-f real out
-
Temperature sensed by the thermistor, in degrees Fahrenheit.
- thermistor.N.resistance real out
-
Computed resistance of the thermistor.
