Abstract :
Thermistor characteristic equation directly determines the temperature measurement accuracy. Three fitting equation of NTC thermistors and their corresponding mathematic solutions are introduced. An adaptive algorithm based on cross-validation is proposed to determine the degree of chebyshev polynomials equation. The experiment indicates that the method of least squares for Steinhart-Hart equation and chebyshev polynomials equation has higher accuracy, and the equation determined by adaptive algorithm for the chebyshev polynomials method has better performance.
