There are four main temperature-sensing devices available: thermocouples, resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), thermistors, and temperature-transducing ICs. These sensors translate the temperature into a reference voltage, resistance or current, which is then measured and processed and a numerical temperature value is computed. The Seebeck Effect – if a circuit is made by joining two wires of different metals, any difference in temperature […]
