Abstract
A temperature sensor having excellent humidity resistance and responsivity is provided. The temperature sensor according to the present invention includes an insulating substrate; a thin film thermistor portionmade of a thermistor material formed on either surface of the insulating substrate; and an opposed electrode pairconsisting of a pair of opposed electrodesformed so as to be opposed to each other on at least either one of the top and bottom surfaces of the thin film thermistor portion, wherein a plurality of the opposed electrode pairs are provided and connected to one another in series. As a result, a voltage applied to a unit thermistor composed of one opposed electrode pair becomes 1/n fold, which can suppress the electrode corrosion due to humidity load.
