Using RTDs in a ratiometric measurement has the advantage in that it eliminates sources of error such as the accuracy and drift of the excitation current source ...

RTDs (resistance-temperature detectors) are the preferred sensor choices for designs requiring precision. Although RTDs are approximately linear over the limited temperature range of 0 to 100°C, these ...

Sometimes, it's necessary to make microvolt measurements in the presence of volts. For example, the need arose to measure the thermoelectric potentials in an RTD ...

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 ...
