<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric element, an integrated element and an electronic circuit for reducing costs without requiring a complicated process for temperature calibration. <P>SOLUTION: In an electric element, a conductive phase change material 15 and a heat generation part 13 for heating the phase change material 15 are laminated on a substrate 11. Furthermore, the viscosity change of the phase change material 15 is detected when the phase transition occurs due to the temperature change of the phase change material 15. And the viscosity of the phase change material 15 changes at a known phase transition temperature with the heating by the heat generation part 13. Specifically, the phase change material 15 in a conductive state is separated from an electrode due to the change of viscosity of the phase change material 15, so detection leads 16 are mutually brought into a non-current conduction state. The occurrence of the phase transition of the phase change material 15 is detected by detecting the non-current conduction state, thereby enabling temperature calibration by the element itself based on the temperature of the heat generation part 13 at the time when the phase transition is detected. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
