Question 1

What sensitive components can be characterized with this system?

Accepted Answer

It is designed for gas-sensitive resistors, NTC/PTC thermistors, varistors, photoresistors, and humidity-sensitive components.

Question 2

Does it support multi-channel testing?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it supports multi-channel scanning to measure and compare multiple sensors or thermistors simultaneously, improving testing efficiency.

Question 3

How is the gas atmosphere controlled?

Accepted Answer

Specialized gas-tight test chambers can be integrated with mass flow controllers to feed controlled mixtures of test gases (e.g., CO, H2, NO2) and purge air.

Question 4

What resistance range is supported?

Accepted Answer

The system measures a wide range of resistance from 0.1 Ω up to 10 GΩ, adapting to various sensor baseline resistances.

Question 5

Can it perform thermal profiling?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the integrated temperature chamber allows measuring resistance vs temperature curves to calculate thermistor B-constants and temperature coefficients.
