With CPUs and chip sets running at clock speeds that were once thought of only in terms of UHF and microwave communications frequencies, heat generation is a problem for PC-system designers. The ...

Using a PN-junction diode for temperature measurement usually depends on its 2‑mV/K temperature coefficient. Conventionally, you must amplify and digitize this voltage with an ADC before you can use ...

Accurate measurement using sensor elements requires precise and local measurement of the element’s temperature for correction and compensation across a wide operating range. Thus, an integral part of ...

i should be getting my enermax dual temperature monitoring rack in a week or so. i wanna use it to accurately measure the case temperature and also the CPU temp. (just dont trust the M/B reported ...

When they need to add temperature control to a project, many hackers reach for a K-type thermocouple for their high-temperature needs, or an integrated temperature-sensing IC when it doesn’t get that ...

You can characterize a semiconductor device to be its own temperature sensor by using an accurate four-wire measurement technique. Semiconductor junctions — from the millions of transistors used in ...

Welcome to the first entry in the ‘Rarely Asked Questions” blog series. Measuring temperature with a single GPIO is the matter at hand that kicks it off. As the need for sensing capabilities becomes ...

When you need a multimeter for testing electrical equipment around the home, it's vital to know what all those symbols around the dial mean.

Bleaching gels activated by Diode lasers in Power Bleaching act as effective insulators, helping prevent large increases in temperatures within the pulp chamber. Teeth should never be directly ...
