Typical Temperature Output
Depending on the needed temperature measurement range and associated accuracy, we suggest two methods
to access to the NTC resistance values.

NTC resistance in at temperature T in K
R
N
NTC resistance in at rated temperature T in K
T, T
N
Temperature in K
β Beta value, material specific constant of NTC
e Base of natural logarithm (e=2.71828)
The exponential relation only roughly describes the actual characteristic of an NTC thermistor can, however,
as the material parameter β in reality also depend on temperature. So this approach is suitable for describing a
restricted range around the rated temperature or resistance with sufficient accuracy.
For practical applications, a more precise description of the real R/T curve may be required. Either more
complicated approaches (e.g. the Steinhart-Hart equation) are used or the resistance/temperature relation as
given in tabulation form. The below table has been experimentally determined with utmost accuracy for
temperature increments of 1 degree.
Actual values may also be influenced by inherent self-heating properties of NTCs. Please refer to MEAS-
France/Humirel Application Note HPC106 “Low power NTC measurement”.

Temperature Interface circuit
Concerning the temperature sensor of the HTS2030SMD, the following measuring method described below is
based on a voltage bridge divider circuit. It uses only one resistor component (Rbatch) at 1% to design
HTS2230 temperature sensor interfacing circuit. Rbatch is chosen to be equal to NTC @25°C to get: Vout =
Vcc/2 @25°C. There are two proposal configurations: If Rbatch is connected to Vcc and NTC to Ground, it leads
to a negative slope characteristic (Pull-Down Configuration). For a positive slope, Rbatch and NTC resistors
have to be switched (Pull-Up Configuration).
