resistivity

Cards (3)

    • The resistivity of a material is a measure of how much resistance a serial provides
    • Resistance depends on the material of the object
  • Resistivity = ( resistance x area ) / length
  • Thermistors - change their resistance based on their temperature so they are used in devices where outputs depend on temperature variation
    With negative temperature coeffient thermistors ( NTC ) - the higher the temperture the lower the resistance
