Application Highlight: precision thermistors for space-grade engineering

Our customers working in spaceflight and satellite electronics regularly face some of the most extreme engineering challenges.

In two recent projects, customers required high-precision NTC thermistors for battery temperature monitoring in space systems. These applications demanded components that could withstand harsh operating environments while delivering consistent, accurate performance over time.

Customer Requirements

  • Fully space-qualified components
  • Wide operational temperature range and long-term stability
  • Extremely tight resistance tolerance

Our Solution

We provided fully NASA and ESA qualified precision thermistors, engineered to perform reliably in the demanding conditions of space. Key features included:

  • ±0.1°C interchangeability
  • Operating range: -55°C to +90°C Radiation-tolerant construction
  • Low outgassing (ASTM E595 compliant)
  • Proven performance in extended space applications
