An NTC thermistor and fixed resistor form a potential divider; output across the fixed resistor. As temperature rises, the output:

  1. stays the same
  2. decreases
  3. increases
  4. reverses
Answer

C) increases

Thermistor resistance falls, so the fixed resistor's share rises. SLO P-09-E-25 · Understanding
