Thermistor is a semiconductor device made of materials whose resistance varies as a function of temperature. A thermistor can be used to compensate for temperature variation in other components of an ...

[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 ...

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 ...

Probably the most electronically sensed analog quantity is temperature. An essential factor in most environments and critical in many, temperature is widely sensed in industrial, automotive, building ...

Temperature is the most widely measured physical variable and designers have many sensing options, among them thermocouples, RTDs, solid-state current-output sensors, and thermistors, to cite just a ...
