the broiling temperature is dependent of the atmospheric pressure! the water broils at 100C° only a see level!

Ice water and boiling water coupled with altitude will give you two points.

NTC are not that very stable, they are amorphous material winch could

PT100 style is more reliable since it is pure metal

How long is the time constant for NTCs?
I guess, it wouldn't matter for most of the measurements we do,
as NTCs need to be "calibrated" before precision measurements
anyways. Unless one measures over several months, or years.
But on this timescales, i wouldn't really trust an off the shelf
PT100 either. Not unless i measure its stability

For use in GPSDOs and OCXOs, i guess it doesn't really matter,
as long as the NTC stays within spec. There an external loop
corrects for the variation/drift of the measurement.


While we are at it: what is a good way to calibrate/characterize
temperature sensors that is available to hobbyists?
