thermistor in EWB

[jhamela]

how do I create a thermistor in EWB using multisim?? There seems to be no thermistors in the component list..
Can someone please suggest?

The only suggestion I have is to search the web for a model and create your own with the Component Wizard.

I am sorry if this doesn't help much, but it is all I have at the moment.

Have a Nice Day

Edit: If you need a tutorial on how to do this then there is one on the NI Website. I don't have the link right now, but you can search the sight and you should be able to find it fairly easy.

Hi All,

Multisim does not simulate temperature and the only analysis that is available for you is the temperature sweep (SimulateàAnalysisàTemperature sweep).  This analysis allows you to sweep the temperature range and at a different temperature you will get different resistor values. 

You can also use a Voltage_control_resistor which is in the Basic virtual family.  Instead of applying a temperature a voltage is applied instead and you pretend the input voltage is temperature that control you resistor.
