At low temperatures, a thermistor typically has a high resistance. This behavior is especially true for the most common type of thermistor, the Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor, whose resistance decreases as temperature increases. Conversely, at low temperatures, the resistance is high, limiting current flow. There is also a Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) thermistor type, where resistance increases with temperature, so at low temperatures, a PTC thermistor would have a low resistance. However, NTC thermistors are more widely used in temperature sensing applications and are the common reference when discussing thermistor behavior at low temperatures.
