Microchip has announced 10 automotive-grade multi-channel temperature monitoring ICs that use external diodes, transistors or substrate diodes (MCU or other die) as sensors. Called the MCP998x family, ...

The MOSFET in Figure 1 is used as both a heater and a temperature sensor in a thermostatic circuit. Figure 1 Circuit diagram for using a MOSFET as a thermostatic heater. The circuit can be used as a ...

This fire sensor circuit exploits the temperature sensing property of an ordinary signal diode IN 34 to detect heat from fire. At the moment it senses heat, a loud alarm simulating that of Fire ...

Over the past decade, researchers have made many skin-like medical and environmental sensors. But adding stretchable wireless communication circuits to these sensors has been difficult. Those radio ...
