  2. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistance_thermometer

    Resistance thermometers, also called resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), are sensors used to measure temperature. Many RTD elements consist of a length of fine wire wrapped around a heat-resistant ceramic or glass core but other constructions are also used. The RTD wire is a pure material, typically platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), or copper ...

  3. Resonant-tunneling diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonant-tunneling_diode

    A working mechanism of a resonant tunneling diode device and negative differential resistance in output characteristic. There is a negative resistance characteristic after the first current peak, due to a reduction of the first energy level below the source Fermi level with gate bias.

  4. Tunnel diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunnel_diode

    The resonant-tunneling diode (RTD) has achieved some of the highest frequencies of any solid-state oscillator. [ 10 ] Another type of tunnel diode is a metal-insulator-insulator-metal (MIIM) diode, where an additional insulator layer allows " step tunneling " for more precise control of the diode. [ 11 ]

  5. List of temperature sensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_temperature_sensors

    The integrated circuit sensor may come in a variety of interfaces — analogue or digital; for digital, these could be Serial Peripheral Interface, SMBus/I 2 C or 1-Wire.. In OpenBSD, many of the I 2 C temperature sensors from the below list have been supported and are accessible through the generalised hardware sensors framework [3] since OpenBSD 3.9 (2006), [4] [5]: §6.1 which has also ...

  6. Computer architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_architecture

    The first documented computer architecture was in the correspondence between Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace, describing the analytical engine.While building the computer Z1 in 1936, Konrad Zuse described in two patent applications for his future projects that machine instructions could be stored in the same storage used for data, i.e., the stored-program concept.

  7. Data acquisition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_acquisition

    A data acquisition system is a collection of software and hardware that allows one to measure or control the physical characteristics of something in the real world. A complete data acquisition system consists of DAQ hardware, sensors and actuators, signal conditioning hardware, and a computer running DAQ software.

  9. RTD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTD

    Resistance Temperature Detector, a resistance thermometer; RTD is also used to rate or describe plywood manufacturing processes where RTD sensors significantly reduce the delamination caused by insufficient heating of the plywood during the press cycle.
