Consider an electronic device that monitors the temperature of exhaled air by a patient. The circuit is equipped with an NTC thermistor and additional circuits to sense the temperature and to trigger a visual alarm via two LEDs (i.e. a green LED and a red LED). The red LED is lighted when the temperature rises above a specific temperature and the green LED is lighted otherwise.  Draw the electronic circuit of the device with appropriate power supply connections.

Question

Consider an electronic device that monitors the temperature of exhaled air by a patient.
The circuit is equipped with an NTC thermistor and additional circuits to sense the temperature and to trigger a visual alarm via two LEDs (i.e. a green LED and a red LED). The red LED is lighted when the temperature rises above a specific temperature and the green LED is lighted otherwise.
 Draw the electronic circuit of the device with appropriate power supply
connections.
Express how the value for the specific temperature can be set for the circuit in detail.
