Starting with the sensor, measuring and controlling temperature is an essential building block of process industries. Automatic control in continuous processes uses industrial control systems to ...

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 ...

Temperature is the most widely measured variable in the process industries, and it is often a critical factor in industrial processing. If a temperature measurement is not accurate or reliable, it can ...

As processor speeds increase and draw more power, thermal management becomes an increasingly important issue within all devices where microcontrollers are used. As thermal management becomes more ...

Each body with a temperature higher than absolute zero (–273.15 °C = 0 Kelvin) releases electromagnetic radiation from the surface. This radiation is proportional to its intrinsic temperature. One ...

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 ...

Thermopile sensors offer a reliable way to measure temperature without physical contact, making them ideal for real-world applications where speed, safety, and precision matter. Whether you are ...

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 ...

Accurately estimating the junction temperature of a semiconductor device is essential for ensuring its reliability, performance, and longevity. Junction temperature has a direct influence on the ...
