Rapid Thermistor Temperature Sensor Project Kit

The thermistor temperature sensor project has been designed specifically to support and integrate with teaching schemes for Key Stages 3 & 4. Instruction details are available and can be photocopied for class use.

Teachers notes are available at our Education Resources site.

• The kit is a heat sensing circuit, which can be set to recognise various temperatures through the use of a variable resistance
• Knowledge, skills and understanding can be developed in: component recognition and purpose; PCB circuit assembly and soldering; system and circuit principles; signal tracing and fault finding; product design
• The kit can be used for both class teaching or for individual project work
• All components, including the PCBs are provided
• The kit includes: resistors, amplifier IC sockets, diodes, thermistors, preset resistors, transistors, LEDs, thermistor PCB and PP3 battery clip
• Empty PCBs are available separately in packs of 5
• Kit contains components for 5 circuits
• Suitable for Key Stages 3 & 4 (ages 11 to 16)
