Although this circuit connects the DS18S20 1-Wire temperature sensor to a Cypress CY8C26443 PSoC microcontroller, designers can easily adapt it to connect other 1-Wire devices to any microprocessor.

The circuit in Figure 1 requires only an ordinary negative-temperature-coefficient (NTC) thermistor, two common ICs, and a handful of discrete components. The circuit uses a uni T.K. Hareendran ...

The circuit uses this diode as a temperature sensor (the temperature coefficient is about −2 mV/°C for silicon). During the negative half-wave of the input AC, while the MOSFET Q1 is OFF, the negative ...

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, ...

Features a 12-bit digital readout using sigma-delta A/D converter February 18, 2008 -- Bangalore, India and Gilroy, California -- Cosmic Circuits today introduced a silicon-proven temperature sensor ...
