F-6 Temperature Equations Model 2750 Multimeter/Switch System User’s Manual
Thermistor equation
Temperature (in Kelvin) is calculated using the Steinhart-Hart equation as follows:
where: T
K
is the calculated temperature in Kelvin.
lnR is the natural log of the measured resistance of the thermistor.
A, B, and C are the curve fitting constants. The constants for the three thermistor
types used by the Model 2750 are listed in Table F-9.
