The old saying “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” cautions against tampering with something that performs reliably and regularly proves its worth. Arguably, this advice applies to the circuit design ...

Designing an analog circuit can be a frustrating experience, as noted by Nick Cornford in his Design Idea (DI), “DIY RTD for a DMM.” With a fortnight’s struggle, I completed the design of 4 mA to 20mA ...

This user guide gives the operation of Intersil’s precision products in a temperature sensor application. Also, this provides a functional description on how it works. Moreover, the guide indicates ...

The self-calibration process functions in situ and provides the necessary documentation to meet the conformance requirements of regulatory agencies. It eliminates the risk of an undetected calibration ...

Omega’s new RTDM12 series of compact RTD temperature sensors are extremely rugged with a molded (IP67) 4-pin connector with M12 male thread and a fast response time. This RTD plug is ideal for ...

Thermocouples function on the principle of the Seebeck effect, which states that two dissimilar metals combined at two junctions produce an electromotive force, or EMF, at the junctions. The metals ...

Designers face many chal lenges when placing thermal-sensing components in embedded systems. The first comes in choosing the temperature sensor. It is often not obvious whether a thermistor, resistive ...
