The BOM: a plain-vanilla diode and a resistor. I’ve been using diodes as temperature sensors in three projects over the last year: one is a coffee roaster that brings the beans up to 220 °C in ...
It is recommended to replace the Fieldpiece DR58 sensor after approximately 300 hours of use. In a process similar to heated diode detectors, corona discharge detectors also react to a change in ...
The input (light emitting diode) in this opto-coupler is connected across the ... can switch currents upto 10mA. A possible application example of the sensor is its use as a ‘power-on-reset circuit’ ...
Examples of circuits that measure temperature with the LTC6802 include an accurate thermistor-based sensor for SOC calculations (Fig. 1) and a simple diode-based “hotspot” detector (Fig.
DA 7440 is a new type of process NIR sensor for over-belt placement, which uses advanced diode array technology to measure accurately as recipes, ingredients or process conditions change.
A case in point is this super-low-cost RF power sensor that [Tech Minds (M0DQW)] recently built. It’s based on a design by [DL5NEG] that uses a single Schottky diode and a handful of passive ...
While well-suited for life science research, the cyan laser diode also shows potential in other applications. In stage and stadium lighting, for example, it expands the color gamut, producing more ...
