The project uses a digital temperature sensor for precise control of temperature in medical applications or industries. This system is better than analog/thermostat system, which has poor accuracy.

Temperature measurement and control is one of the most critical processes used in electronics. Found in virtually every piece of electronic equipment and in every industrial process, temperature ...

On what seems like almost a daily basis, a news flash talks about some electronic product overheating, causing potentially catastrophic problems. While an overly hot product can, of course, cause ...

To understand the concept of a remote temperature sensor and how it differs from a local temperature sensor, it’s best to first review some basics of temperature-sensor ICs. A silicon ...

A guide for engineers balancing performance, reliability, and manufacturability across today’s smart systems By Barry Brents, ...

Designers face many chal lenges when placing thermal-sensing components in embedded systems. The first comes in choosing the temperature sensor. It is often not obvious whether a thermistor, resistive ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

A temperature controller is an instrument that controls temperatures, often without extensive operator involvement. In a temperature controller system, the controller accepts a temperature sensor as ...

This article details six essential sensors, along with four necessary questions a design engineer should ask before choosing which ones to use in their next design. In the R&D and electronics design ...
