1. Evaluate sensor tradeoffs in digital-thermometer design
Freeman, W. (1) Source: EDN, v 27, n 19, p 115-22, 29 Sept. 1982; ISSN: 0012-7515; Country of publication: USA Author affiliation: (1) Teledyne Semicond., Mountain View, CA, United States Abstract: Digital-thermometer design requires consideration of signal-conditioning and display-driving circuitry as well as of temperature sensors. Using a single-chip integrating CMOS A/D converter greatly simplifies the circuitry, making it possible to concentrate on sensor selection and calibration. In choosing the sensor, component cost, ease of calibration and power consumption must be considered.
