Can anyone help me? How can I use KTY10 temperature sensor in a circuit. I have its datasheet but it doesn't mention how to use the sensor in a circuit.
If you have any good website or material about the temperature, please let me know.
I know that you maybe wonder why I don't use LM35 or other sensors. I have to say that I am have a school project that require use the sensor.
I appreciate your help.
 

Hi,

KTY10 is the "Temperature dependent Resistor with Positive Temperature Coefficient" according to the datasheet. Therefore the thing you need to measure is the resistance of this component and make your own scale. This needs to make a voltage divider and measure the voltage and calculate the resistance. I think that's it.
