Where there is power there is heat, and where there is heat there is often a need to sense temperature (the most widely sensed physical variable). What we call temperature is our measurement of a ...

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 ...

For temperature sensing from 1.8V supplies, Microchip has introduced the EMC181x family of temperature monitors. Working with on on-chip sensor, plus various combination of external diode-connected ...

Many Linear Technology devices use an external PNP transistor to sense temperature. Common examples are LTC3880, LTC3883 and LTC2974. Accurate temperature sensing depends on proper PNP selection, ...

Said to be the smallest remote junction temperature sensors with a built-in local temperature sensor, the TMP421 (one channel) and TMP422 (two channels) boast a remote sensor accuracy of ±1°C (maximum ...

Microchip has introduced a four channel temperature sensing IC for use with remote sensing diodes. Called MCP9904, it has advanced features such as resistance error ...

The 10 multichannel temperature-sensor interfaces in this family are designed to address the complex needs of today’s sophisticated automobile subsystems. Temperature is the most commonly measured ...

Lead-acid batteries are indispensable in various applications, and it is crucial to monitor their status. However, the ...

One of the joys of writing up the entries for the 2025 Component Abuse Challenge has come in finding all the different alternative uses for the humble transistor. This building block of all modern ...

Adafruit has announced the availability of a new temperature sensor and fan controller they have created in the form of the EMC2101 I2C. Priced at just $5.50 the fan controller and temperature sensor ...
