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 ...

Temperature transmitters are employed to transmit a signal from a temperature sensor, such as a RTD or thermocouple, to a control or measurement device. These temperature transmitters amplify and ...

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 ...

Editor's note: I am pleased to bring you an excellent RAQ by Yao Zhao, a product application engineer with the China design center in ADI Beijing. RTD (resistance temperature detectors) can provide ...
