An RTD (resistance temperature detector) is a temperature sensor that operates on the measurement principle that a material’s electrical resistance changes with temperature. The relationship between ...

For a wide variety of products, manufacturing processes require highly precise and reliable temperature measurement technologies. Temperature is often measured through direct contact with a sensor, ...

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 ...

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 ...

In this first article in a two-part series, we discuss resistance temperature detector (RTD) circuit design for a functionally safe system and introduce considerations for the Route 2S component ...

An RTD version of the TEMPpoint temperature measurement instrument line, the DT9872 is a PC-based instrument featuring virtually no warm-up time, translating into instantaneous stabilization. Users ...

Control the temperature of the fluids and air servicing a building. The costs of ignoring temperature accuracy in energy measurement (British Thermal Unit) can be worse than expected. Inaccuracy ...

Temperature is probably the most common physical measurement made during medical diagnosis or evaluation. Body temperature is an accurate predictor of many types of conditions and illnesses. The ...
