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 ...

The RTDM12 Series of RTD temperature sensors have a molded (IP67) four-pin connector with M12 male thread. With a fast response time, the sensor is ideal for pressure-vessel applications, pressurized ...

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 ...

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 ...

Traditionally, resistance-temperature-detector (RTD) sensor resistance is measured by applying a precision current source and measuring the developed voltage. This approach usually requires a ...

The two most common types of temperature sensors in industrial applications are resistance temperature devices (RTD) and thermocouples. The two most common types of temperature sensors in industrial ...

The aerospace, automotive, and environmental sectors often face harsh conditions such as high temperatures and corrosion. Thus, real-time in-situ temperature and pressure monitoring of critical ...
