Thermistors - Directly heated positive temperature coefficient - Part 1: Generic specification
This part of IEC 60738 describes terms and methods of test for positive step-function temperature coefficient thermistors, insulated and non-insulated types typically made from ferro-electric semi-conductor materials. It establishes standard terms, inspection procedures and methods of test for use in detail specifications for Qualification Approval and for Quality Assessment Systems for electronic components.

Thermistances - Coefficient de température positif à chauffage direct - Partie 1: Spécification générique
L’IEC 60738-1:2022 décrit des termes et des méthodes d’essai pour les thermistances à basculement à coefficient de température positif, de type isolées ou non isolées, normalement fabriquées à partir de matériaux semiconducteurs ferroélectriques. Elle établit des termes normaux, des procédures de contrôle et des méthodes d’essai destinés aux spécifications particulières pour l’homologation et pour les systèmes d’assurance de la qualité des composants électroniques. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente: a) restructuration complète pour être conforme aux Directives ISO/IEC; catégorisation et réorganisation des méthodes d’essai dans ces catégories, b) révision de certaines formulations, figures et références.
Termistorji - Neposredno ogrevani s pozitivnim temperaturnim koeficientom - 1. del: Splošna specifikacija (IEC 60738-1:2022)
Ta del standarda IEC 60738 opisuje pogoje in preskusne metode za termistorje s stopenjskim pozitivnim temperaturnim koeficientom, z izolacijo ali brez nje, ki so običajno izdelani iz feroelektričnih polprevodniških materialov.
Določa splošne pogoje, inšpekcijske postopke in preskusne metode za uporabo v podrobnih specifikacijah za odobritev kvalifikacije ter sisteme za ocenjevanje kakovosti elektronskih komponent.
