Introduction
In this tutorial, we are going to control the speed of a DC Fan by using a thermistor. The main aim of a temperature control sensor circuit is to indicate a temperature or control a temperature. A Fan control temperature sensor circuit exploits the property of a sensor to control the speed of a fan. A sensor is basically a type of transducer which is a type of device that converts one form of energy to another.The important component of a Fan controlled temperature sensor circuit is a thermistor. The fan control temperature sensor circuit reduces power consumption and also helps people to control the speed of a fan.

DC Fan Speed Control Circuit
Working Explanation
The principle of the circuit is to monitor and control the temperature. Whenever the temperature of a device increases or decreases the speed of a fan changes accordingly. So the temperature control sensor works as a cooling device. The resistance of a thermistor decreases when there is an increase in temperature. So the electrical conductivity also increases which results in the increment of voltage.
This causes the speed of a fan to increase. Hence, it is possible to control the speed of a fan when the temperature of a device varies. By making slight adjustments in a circuit, it can also be used to control the room temperature.
Application
- The temperature sensor circuit monitors the changes in an environment.
- It has various applications in different industries and electronic devices.
