Assertion: resistor's power | /r/HasProperty | dissipated in thermistor
Facets:
Source sentences:
text: The power dissipated in a thermistor is typically maintained at a very low level to ensure insignificant temperature measurement error due to self-heating.
text: However, because of their size, they have a higher dissipation constant (power required to raise their temperature by 1°C) and since power dissipated by the thermistor is proportional to the square of the current, they can handle higher currents much better than bead type thermistors.
