Aerosol generating device and resistive heater for aerosol generating device

An aerosol generating device, configured to heat an aerosol generation product to generate aerosols, comprising:

• a chamber, configured to receive the aerosol generation product;
• and
• a resistive heater, at least partially extending within the chamber, and configured to heat the aerosol generation product received in the chamber,
• wherein the resistive heater comprises:
• a resistive heating element, and a first electrically conductive pin and a second electrically conductive pin configured to supply power to the resistive heating element, wherein
• the first electrically conductive pin comprises a first section and a second section, the second section has a resistivity less than that of the first section, and the first section is connected to the resistive heating element;
• and
• the first section comprises a first galvanic couple material, and the second electrically conductive pin comprises a second galvanic couple material different from the first galvanic couple material, so that a thermocouple configured to sense a temperature of the resistive heating element is formed between the first section and the second electrically conductive pin.
