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 ...

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 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 ...

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 ...

PT100 sensors are the most common platinum resistance thermometers on the market due to their straightforward design, high accuracy, and linear temperature measurement capabilities. Commonly referred ...

Temperature is one of the most frequently measured physical quantities, and features prominently in many of our projects, from weather stations to 3D printers. Most commonly we’ll see thermistors, ...
