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 ...

This application note discusses some ways on how to maintain accuracy when diodes are employed as remote sensors wiht the remote temperature sensing devices from Microchip. A list of diode ...

Said to simplify design processes, the TMP411 ±1°C remote junction and local temperature sensor monitors thermal diodes found in CPUs, microprocessors, graphics processing units, and FPGAs. The device ...

Microchip has announced 10 automotive-grade multi-channel temperature monitoring ICs that use external diodes, transistors or substrate diodes (MCU or other die) as sensors. Called the MCP998x family, ...

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 ...

As aeroengine thrust-to-weight ratios continue to improve, the operating temperature of their hot-end components has risen steadily, placing stricter demands on the performance of temperature sensors.

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 ...

[Miroslav Hancar] wasn’t satisfied with abusing just a single component for our Component Abuse Challenge. He decided to abuse a whole assembly, in particular, some LED candles. In this project, LEDs ...
