When they need to add temperature control to a project, many hackers reach for a K-type thermocouple for their high-temperature needs, or an integrated temperature-sensing IC when it doesn’t get that ...

How does a silicon temperature (temp) sensor IC actually measure temperature? These ICs take advantage of the basic temperature-dependent behavior of silicon PN junctions. If you have two PN junctions ...

Compact MEMS Pirani transducer combines thermal sensing and barometric measurement to deliver wide-range vacuum monitoring ...

To understand the concept of a remote temperature sensor and how it differs from a local temperature sensor, it’s best to first review some basics of temperature-sensor ICs. A silicon ...

Flux offers an artificial intelligence platform that enables users to design PCBs with prompts. A manufacturer looking to monitor its production line could request a PCB with temperature and pressure ...

This week we got the chance to speak with Daniel Mar from Texas Instruments Product Marketing who showed off what TI notes is the TMP006, the world's smallest digital infrared temperature sensor. This ...

Designers often want to measure the junction temperature of a DC switching power supply. Knowing a system’s junction temperature is an important and basic requirement from safety and failure mode and ...
