[Edward], creator of the Cave Pearl project, an underwater data logger, needed a way to measure temperature with a microcontroller. Normally, this problem is most easily solved by throwing a ...
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 ...
Adafruit has today announced the availability of a new PT1000 RTD Temperature Sensor Amplifier MAX31865, which is now available to purchase directly from the online Adafruit electronics store priced ...
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 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 ...
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 ...
Housed in a rugged flat package that easily mounts to any surface, the Model S667 Thermal Tab RTD temperature sensor is sealed against moisture for wet environments or immersion in water. Time ...
