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 ...

Abstract: This article reviews the basic characteristics of common temperature sensors, describes the RTD PT100 temperature transducer, and explains a simple analog approach for linearizing and ...

A PT100 probe is a platinum resistance thermometer with a nominal resistance of 100 Ω at a temperature of 0 ° C. Its features are regulated by the IEC 751 (EN 60751) standard. This type of temperature ...

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 ...

PT100 sensors are the most common platinum resistance thermometers on the market due to their straightforward design, high accuracy, and linear temperature measurement capabilities. Commonly referred ...

In this first article in a two-part series, we discuss resistance temperature detector (RTD) circuit design for a functionally safe system and introduce considerations for the Route 2S component ...

Omega’s new RTDM12 series of compact RTD temperature sensors are extremely rugged with a molded (IP67) 4-pin connector with M12 male thread and a fast response time. This RTD plug is suited for ...
