Circuit for temperature compensation

Abstract

The present disclosure is directed to a circuit for use in actuators, electromotive drives and valves. The circuit includes an electric conductor having a temperature-dependent resistance. The electric conductor includes a coil having a copper wire wound over a coil support. The electric conductor is connected in series with an electrical series resistor, which includes a non-reactive resistor connected in parallel with an NTC resistor. The non-reactive resistor is a wire that is composed of an alloy of copper, nickel and manganese. The wire is wound over the coil. The wire may be wound on an area of the coil support separate from the copper wire. The construction of the circuit minimizes the affect of temperature on the operation of the circuit.
