In consequence, the temperature sensor's support circuitry must provide galvanic isolation between the sensor and its data-acquisition system. Also, the data-acquisition system seldom provides an ...

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.

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 ...

Systems that push performance or work in harsh high-temperature environments need capability to track the temperature. “Availability of a proven temperature sensor silicon IP core in 65nm ...
