[Edward], creator of the Cave Pearl project, an underwater data logger, needed a way to measure temperature with a microcontroller. Normally, this problem is most easily solved by throwing a ...

Designers face many chal lenges when placing thermal-sensing components in embedded systems. The first comes in choosing the temperature sensor. It is often not obvious whether a thermistor, resistive ...

Temperature sensor integrated circuits (ICs) have several advantages over negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors. For example, temperature sensor ICs have a much more linear response than ...
