A low cost linearizing circuit is developed, placing the NTC thermistor in a widely used inverting amplifier circuit using operational amplifier. The performance of the system is verified experimentally. A linearity of approximately ± 1% is achieved over 30 °C -120 °C. When used for a narrower span, a much better linearity of ± 0.5% is obtained. The gain of the arrangement can be adjusted over a wide range by simply varying the feedback resistance. The simplicity of the configuration promises a greater reliability, and also curtails the deterioration in the stability of performance, by reducing the cumulation of drifts in the different circuit components and devices.
