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, resistance-temperature detectors (RTDs), and thermistors make up the vast majority of sensors for measuring temperature, but you can also use a diode or transistor's P-N junction as a ...

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 ...

Process instruments consist of two main components: a sensor and a transmitter. The sensor is sometimes part of the instrument assembly, as with some pressure instruments, but is more often separate, ...

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 ...

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 suited for ...
