Heat Sensor Circuit On Pcb

This temperature property of transistor is used here to use it as a heat sensor.

Heat sensor circuit on pcb.

Heat sensor schematic with the 4060 ic. Copper is an excellent conductor of heat. 2x pin header 1x9 2 54 mm e g. This circuit utilize ntc negative temperature coefficient thermistor hence the resistance value of this device decrease when the temperature rises.

Sixty to sixty five percent of the heat generated on a printed circuit board pcb is transferred to the temperature sensor die via its pins. It conducts heat significantly faster than fr4. And the sensitivity of the circuit can be adjusted by rotating the knob. M2x6 bolt nut.

Because the characteristics are almost the same for these types of transistors. This simple circuit is easy to construct and test. We can use other alternatives like 2n2222 bc168 bc238 bc183 etc. The resistance of the thermistor drops whenever there is a rise in temperature hooks with a pot we can build a simple voltage divider which forms the heat sensing part of our circuit.

Pcb thermal management techniques depend on a number of factors including the amount of heat the components and circuit dissipate the environment the overall design and the enclosure. The temperature sensor in an smd model forms the measurement active element on a pcb. It is used to detect the heat. It is an ideal add on circuit to monitor heat in cd players amplifiers etc.

Working of heat sensor circuit diagram. Diode 1n4148 and variable resister of 1k ohm are used here to set a reference or threshold level for the sensitivity of heat. Bc548 is an npn transistor to 92 type. Here are 2 heat sensor circuits first one is build with the 4060 ic the second one is simpler than the one before and has fewer components.

It senses heat from electronic devices and gives a warning alarm. Simple heat sensor circuit designed to give alert sound when the temperature reaches the desired threshold here we can adjust the temperature threshold level using variable resistor rv1. Thermistor was employed as a heat sensor in the above circuit. Ebay de 3d printed stand see my github for stl file thermochromic adhesive sheet 150x150 mm 30 35 c.

The gnd pin is connected to the substrate and therefore has the least thermal resistance between temperature sensor and heat source. The chip is connected with terminal faces either with a thin conductive path or via meandering circuit board conductors in order to reduce heat dissipation and to prevent corruption of the measuring results.
