Quiz: How Well Do You Know Adaptive Power Switching?
Is your I/O module overheating? The AD74416H's Adaptive Power Switching (APS) can cut heat dissipation by up to 40% — but how well do you really understand how it works?

Hello,
I need a NTC thermistor model. I searched for a spice model but I did not found it. I interesting to simulate behavior NTC with increase temperature and decrease temperature
Thank you . I wish to know how to modify this function for a NTC sensor
Hi bogdan546, and john-kevin,
Maybe this library of NTC Thermistors from TDK for LTspice is what you're looking for, as an example?

Hi bogdan546, and john-kevin,
Sorry, actually above link is the capacitor library by mistake.
For NTC Thermistors, you can download the pspice models here:
In the combined *.lib file that you get, I went ahead and selected one NTC B57211V2472J060 (datasheet link below) and imported it into LTspice (*.asy file) as an example shown in the zip file below (Extract All, and then double click the *.asc file to open an example test circuit using this NTC):

1031.NTC B57211V2472J060 7_2_21.zip
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Hooman
Yes that's what it was about. Thank you Hooman
O.k., the thread is already some days old. But here comes my solution:
In NTC datasheets the R_25 (resistance at 25 °C) and the temperature coefficient B25_50 normally is given. You can feed these data in LTspice into a behavioral source. See the example below:
You can see the plot above is exactly the R=f(t)-curve shown iin the datasheet.
I hope I could help you.
Made some thoughts again. The solution with the behaviour source is not the best way - when you feed it with a current source there will be problems. The best way is to model the resistor directly, see the following graphics:
As you can see it works equally with a current source and a voltage source as expected for a resistor.
nerd62, How do you enter a resistor this way in LTSpice? Maybe you could show how to create the component? When I place a resistor in LTSpice, I don't get the option to enter the information that you're entering above.
