In this first article in a two-part series, we discuss resistance temperature detector (RTD) circuit design for a functionally safe system and introduce considerations for the Route 2S component ...

The Southern California Rapid Transit District, or RTD, was Metro’s predecessor. Photo by Alan Weeks via Metro Library and Archive (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0) For the transportation nerds and graphic design ...

An earlier Design Idea described how to linearize the output of an RTD (resistance-temperature-detector) sensor and how to calculate the resistor values using a spreadsheet (Reference 1). That idea ...

Traditionally, resistance-temperature-detector (RTD) sensor resistance is measured by applying a precision current source and measuring the developed voltage. This approach usually requires a ...

RTDs (resistance-temperature detectors) are the preferred sensor choices for designs requiring precision. Although RTDs are approximately linear over the limited temperature range of 0 to 100°C, these ...
