Platinum thin films were deposited on $SiO_{2}/Si$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrates by DC magnetron sputtering for RTD (resistance thermometer devices) temperature sensors. The resistivity and sheet resistivity of these films were decreased with increasing the annealing temperature and time. We made Pt resistance pattern on $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrate by lift-off method and fabricated Pt-RTD temperature sensors by using W-wire, silver epoxy and SOG(spin-on-glass). In the temperature range of $25{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, we investigated TCR(temperature coefficient of resistance) and resistance ratio of Pt-RTD temperature sensors. TCR values were increased with increasing the annealing temperature, time and the thickness of Pt thin films. Resistance values were varied linearly within the range of measurement temperature. At annealing temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$, time of 240min and thin film thickness of $1{\mu}m$, we obtained TCR value of $3825ppm/^{\circ}C$ close to the Pt bulk value.
