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 ...

Many methods exist to measure temperature in electronic systems. To measure the local temperature of an object or area of a PCB, the most common methods are to use a thermistor or local temperature ...

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 ...

Flexible, low-cost temperature- and pressure-sensing devices are of profound importance in satisfying the urgent requirements for many advanced artificial ...

Also known as “smart everything,” the Internet of Things (IoT) is grabbing headlines across the industry. As any great new technology, it comes wrapped in shiny paper that touts it as the solution for ...
