is the “silicon bandgap temperature sensor“. Instead of a diode, two transistors are used, and common-mode imperfections are cancelled out with an op-amp. This works great in an IC ...
Two papers at the International Solid-state Circuits Conference tackled ultra-low power on-chip temperature sensing, one using an npn transistor and the other by sensing a wire. The npn sensor ...
Accurate and cost-effective sensing of the temperature to be controlled. Closure of the feedback loop between temperatures sensor and heat and/or cooling ... lags common in thermal control systems.
A recent Design Idea presents a circuit to measure an airflow rate up to 2000 fpm using two transistors in a Darlington configuration. One transistor works as a self-heated thermal sensor and the ...
Based on the global standard ZigBee 2.4 GHz wireless technology ... and a converter transistor temperature sensor. The sensors and 12 V rechargeable, sealed lead-acid battery are powered ...
An 80V small signal transistor has been launched to address high temperature sensor interfaces such as piezoelectric sensors or to implement a guard amplifier. Cissoid's 'Mercury' mosfet transistor is ...
Graphene — a single layer of carbon atoms packed in a hexagonal lattice — has a number of appealing properties owing to its two-dimensional ... magnetic field sensors,” says Tan.
