Temperature measurement apparatus using negative temperature coefficient thermistor

Provided is a temperature measurement apparatus using a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor. A temperature sensor includes the NTC thermistor and a variable resistor part. A resistance value of the variable resistor part varies between a default resistance value for measuring a temperature and a temporary resistance value for determining a disconnection. An abnormal operation determination unit determines whether the NTC thermistor is disconnected, based on an output voltage of the temperature sensor when the variable resistor part has the temporary resistance value.
