Abstract

A novel circuit employing the interbase resistance of a medium n-doped unijunction transistor (2N 2646) as a temperature sensor has been described which yields linear temperature-to-voltage conversion over the range–20°C to 130°C with sensitivity equal to 10 mV/°C and linearity better than 1.5% up to 130°C.
