Thermistor or Therma' resistor is t-o J termina' semiconductor de)ice

thermistors inc'ude o9ides of co4a't, nic<e', co,,er, iron uranium and

The thermistors has )er& hi(h tem,erature coefficient of resistance, of the
order of 3 to 5Q ,er C, ma<in( it an idea' tem,erature transducer. The
tem,erature coefficient of resistance is norma''& ne(ati)e. The reistance at an&

# BJT is a three termina' t-o J 2unction semiconductor de)ice in -hich the

termina' emitter, co''ector and 4ase. The emitter 'a&er is the source of the char(e
carriers and it is hearti'& do,ed -ith a moderate cross sectiona' area. The
co''ector co''ects the char(e carries and hence moderate do,in( and 'ar(e cross
