In this measurement range, the sensor type will usually be a thermocouple, and selecting the right type is the first step when designing a high-temperature measurement system. A thermocouple is a ...

A Thermocouple is a terrific way to measure temperature. The effects of temperature change on dissimilar metals produces a measurable voltage. But to make that measurement you need an amplifier ...

The system also used a no-name brand Chinese microcontroller making firmware hacks impractical. [Harvs] decided that even with cold junction compensation a K-type thermocouple wasn’t ideal for ...
