As discussed in the first article of this two-part series, there are different challenges involved in designing and optimizing thermistor-based application solutions. These are sensor selection and ...

I often have to get a reasonably accurate temperature measurement for a laser, transistor, or printed circuit board. I usually use a thermistor for my temperature sensor because they are inexpensive.

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 ...

Melexis has created a 32 x 24 pixel far-infra-red sensor array that can photograph the temperature of objects at between -40 and +260°C. Dubbed MLX90642, it comes in a 9.3mm diameter four-lead TO39 ...
