Starting with the sensor, measuring and controlling temperature is an essential building block of process industries. Automatic control in continuous processes uses industrial control systems to ...

Measuring temperature turns out to be a fundamental function for a huge number of devices. You furnace’s programmable thermostat and digital clocks are obvious examples. If you just needed to know if ...

The two most common types of temperature sensors in industrial applications are resistance temperature devices (RTD) and thermocouples. Choosing correctly can be crucial to the success of your ...

One important factor in power plant control system performance is the response time of the process measurement used in the control system. The response time of boiler steam temperature sensors and ...

The circuit shown in Figure 1 is a completely isolated 4-channel temperature measurement circuit optimized for performance, input flexibility, robustness, and low cost. It supports all types of ...

Since the early 1900s, thermocouples have provided critical temperature-measurements, especially at very high temperature. For many industrial and process-critical applications, both T/Cs and RTDs ...

Welcome to the first entry in the ‘Rarely Asked Questions” blog series. Measuring temperature with a single GPIO is the matter at hand that kicks it off. As the need for sensing capabilities becomes ...

Having full visibility into a composite and/or adhesive bondline during cure has been an issue for decades. Current temperature sensors — thermocouples — are too large to be embedded without causing a ...
