Explain the V-I graph of a thermistor.

Explain the V-I graph of a thermistor.



A thermistor is a special type of resistor whose
resistance decreases as its temperature increases.

Therefore...

As the voltage increases = current increase = temperature increase = resistance decrease (only for thermistor)

Therefore, as the voltage increases on the x axis, the resistance decreases.

The gradient is the resistance. High gradient means there is less resistance.
