At Sensors Expo 2018, Mike Mays from Analog Devices explains the LTC2983, a temperature to bits IC. The IC is designed to be extremely easy to use part. Everything necessary to measure temperature is performed by the chip and its output is in direct degrees C. In the display, an “EMI (electromagnetic interference) Hairball from […]

TE Wire & Cable partners with Plataine for smart thermocouples solution
TE Wire & Cable, a manufacturer of thermocouple wire, and Plataine, a leading provider of Industrial IoT and AI-based optimization software for advanced manufacturing, today announced a partnership for Smart Thermocouple solutions. Plataine’s IoT-based AI software tracks and analyzes the location, status and duty cycles of TE Wire & Cable’s thermocouples, enabling thermocouple […]
CHT sensor for engine monitoring applications
The Sensor Connection a division of Harold G. Schaevitz Industries LLC, has expanded its line of temperature sensors with the addition of the CHT-FS series Cylinder Head Temperature CHT Sensor. Installed under the spark plug or head bolt for monitoring of engine performance and critical over-temperature conditions. The unique flexible stem design allows for installation […]
What’s the temperature of this thing?
Of course, there are many follow-up questions regarding where or when such as: on just the surface, in the center, on average, instantaneously, or steady state, to name a few. The standard temperature measurement technique that many people first encountered was the mercury (Hg) thermometer to determine if they had a 98.6° or higher temperature. […]
IC Simplifies Digital Temperature Measurements
At Sensors Expo 2016, Mike Mayes, a Design Engineering Section Leader from Linear Technology, demonstrates the capabilities of the LTC2983 temperature-to-bits converter that provides thermistor, thermocouple RTD and diode-based digital temperature measurements.

World’s Smallest Non-Contact Temperature Sensor
Need thermal management and/or temperature monitoring but have minimal space to mount a sensor? Exergen Global’s Micro IRt/c sensor could be the answer. At just 0.75” (19mm) long and 0.25” (6.4mm) in diameter, the infrared (IR) thermocouple fits into extremely tight spaces. The sensor provides accuracy to within ±1%, repeatability of 0.02°F (0.01°C), resolution of […]
