A temperature-measuring device composed of a semiconductor material is known as a
A) Thermocouple.
B) Thermistor.
C) Thermojunction.
D) RTD.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A thermistor is a type of temperature sensor that is made of a semiconductor material. Unlike a thermocouple, which is made of two different metals, a thermistor is made of a single material with a resistance that varies with temperature. Therefore, B (Thermistor) is the correct choice.
