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 ...

Adafruit has today announced the availability of a new PT1000 RTD Temperature Sensor Amplifier MAX31865, which is now available to purchase directly from the online Adafruit electronics store priced ...

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 ...

Electronics enthusiasts looking for a way to measure temperature might be interested in the arrival of a new piece of hardware to the Adafruit online store in the form of the new Adafruit PT100 RTD ...

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, ...

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 ...

Traditionally, resistance-temperature-detector (RTD) sensor resistance is measured by applying a precision current source and measuring the developed voltage. This approach usually requires a ...
