Temperature is one of the most widely measured parameters in a power plant. No matter the type of plant, accurate and reliable temperature measurement is essential for operational excellence.

Infrared (IR) technology has been successfully used for years for ongoing temperature measurement and control. Now, new designs are boosting the accuracy, Infrared (IR) technology has been ...

Temperature measurement has long been vital to most industrial and manufacturing operations. It has taken on new importance in the era of smart buildings and homes, where automation of such functions ...

Most electronic engineers know that a transistor’s base-emitter voltage (V BE) has a temperature coefficient (TC) of about -2 mV/°C. However, for precision temperature sensors, “about” isn’t good ...

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, ...

IR sensors play a vital role in battery monitoring, ensuring optimal temperature control and enhancing product reliability ...

One of the most common measurement errors is using the wrong tool for the job. For example, using a tape measure to estimate small mechanical tolerances or relying on a bathroom scale to track precise ...

Supermarket operators face unique food-safety challenges that are in some ways even more complicated than those faced by traditional restaurants. As retailers increasingly adopt a “grocerant” model ...
