In the realm of DIY electronics, the Arduino UNO has emerged as a versatile platform for a myriad of projects. One such innovative project is the creation of a low-cost thermal camera, as demonstrated ...

Thermal cameras can cost well into the five-figure range if you’re buying high-resolution models with good feature sets. New models can be so advanced that their export and use is heavily controlled ...

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 ...

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 ...

This articles describes how you can use I2C (TWI) communication, Arduino and temperature sensors to measure 3 different temperatures. It can be very helpful when you want to measure the outside, ...

The Omni RTD temperature sensor is a combination of an integrated display/control unit and a highly accurate platinum RTD temperature-sensor tip. A user-programmable display interface permits setting ...

The RTDM12 Series of RTD temperature sensors have a molded (IP67) four-pin connector with M12 male thread. With a fast response time, the sensor is ideal for pressure-vessel applications, pressurized ...

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 ...

This article discusses the history and design challenges for designing a resistance temperature detector (RTD)-based temperature measurementsystem. It also covers RTD selection and configuration trade ...

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 ...
