Before running a formal test with multiple resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensors, it is often necessary to calibrate and debug a data-acquisition system to verify basic functionality.

An earlier Design Idea described how to linearize the output of an RTD (resistance-temperature-detector) sensor and how to calculate the resistor values using a spreadsheet (Reference 1).That idea ...

National Instruments (Nasdaq: NATI) today announced the NI PXIe-4357 RTD module, the latest addition to its SC Express sensor measurement family for PXI Express. The high-performance module is ...

Arguably, this advice applies to the circuit design used in many RTD sensors that quietly and efficiently measure temperature in industrial manufacturing facilities worldwide. However, to meet the ...
