The temperature coefficient of an RTD (resistance-temperature-detector)element is positive. Most stable, linear, and repeatableRTDs are of platinum-metal construction. You can usethe constant 0.00385Ω ...

This article discusses the history and design challenges for designing a resistance temperature detector (RTD)-based temperature measurementsystem. It also covers RTD selection and configuration trade ...

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 ...

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 ...

Temperature sensors are often used in assembly constructions so as to guard the sensor element against an aggressive atmosphere or process media. Sensor elements implement sensors in end applications ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. In a typical resistance temperature detector(RTD) measurement application, the delta-sigma converter often is configured in a ...
