Sine waves are beneficial for information interchange, e.g. they have very a short and predictable frequency spectrum. When needed, it is relatively easy to suppress the sine signals with filters. On ...

This dual-slope temperature sensor combines one negative-sloped and one positive-sloped temp sensor to create a V-shaped output, which can be used to compensate for a dual-temperature-coefficient ...

CMOS current reference circuits play a critical role in modern integrated circuits by providing a stable and reproducible current source that remains unaffected by variations in supply voltage, ...

During normal operation, thermal circuit breakers utilize a thermal sensing element (such as bimetal), which deflects when the temperature reaches a predetermined calibration level, causing the ...

This idea describes an MCU interface for a 1-Wire temperature sensor interface that offers high accuracy while using less board space. The circuit can be modified for use with any 1-Wire device. The ...

Scientists have developed a unique materials approach to multilayered, ceramic-based, 3-D microelectronics circuits, such as those used in cell phones. The approach compensates for how changes due to ...

Features a 12-bit digital readout using sigma-delta A/D converter February 18, 2008 -- Bangalore, India and Gilroy, California -- Cosmic Circuits today introduced a silicon-proven temperature sensor ...

Many of today’s pharmaceuticals, biofuels, and other chemicals are produced by microbial fermentation. But the churning metabolism of bacteria in a bioreactor raises the cells’ temperature, which in ...

Editor’s note: This article presents a good basic tutorial that will discuss several simple and low cost, but effective solutions for isolation of temperature sensors using optical couplers and ...
