Creation of temperature field using resistive thick - film heater systems

Abstract

In a great number of electronic devices the operation temperature higher than room temperature is required. Sensors of the different physical and chemical quantities are very good example of such circuits. Additionally, the temperature field distribution is one from the main factor which determines proper exploitation parameters. Thick - film technology is often used for creation of heater systems in above-mentioned devices. The idea of heater systems construction (made in thick-film technology) has been included in the paper. The results of simulations (using ANSYS program) and 1R measurements have been also presented.
