In this article, we cover the three different RTD configurations: 2-wire, 3-wire, and 4-wire. 4-Wire RTD Connection Diagram A 4-wire RTD configuration offers the best performance. The only issue that ...

Designing an analog circuit can be a frustrating experience, as noted by Nick Cornford in his Design Idea (DI), “DIY RTD for a DMM.” With a fortnight’s struggle, I completed the design of 4 mA to 20mA ...

This article discusses the history and design challenges for designing a resistance temperature detector (RTD)-based temperature measurementsystem. It also covers RTD selection and configuration trade ...

The old saying “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” cautions against tampering with something that performs reliably and regularly proves its worth. Arguably, this advice applies to the circuit design ...

This user guide gives the operation of Intersil’s precision products in a temperature sensor application. Also, this provides a functional description on how it works. Moreover, the guide indicates ...

An RTD (resistance temperature detector) is a temperature sensor that operates on the measurement principle that a material’s electrical resistance changes with temperature. The relationship between ...
