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 ...

Temperature transmitters are employed to transmit a signal from a temperature sensor, such as a RTD or thermocouple, to a control or measurement device. These temperature transmitters amplify and ...

Before running a formal test with multiple resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensors, it is often necessary to calibrate and debug a data-acquisition system to verify basic functionality. The ...

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 ...

This article discusses the history and design challenges for designing a resistance temperature detector (RTD)-based temperature measurementsystem. It also covers RTD selection and configuration trade ...

Calibration is a crucial step in the manufacturing process of many sensors (or transmitters) such as pressure, temperature and position sensors. One key component needed for calibration is the ...
