Redesigning RTD-Based
Temperature Sensors
for the Smart Factory Age
Brian Condell,
Product Applications
Engineer
This article shows how a resistance temperature detector
(
RTD
)
industrial temperature sensor can be quickly redesigned to meet
smart factory demands for temperature measurement devices
with smaller form factors, flexible communications, and remote
configurability. This can be done using a highly integrated analog
front end
(
AFE
)
and an IO-Link
®
transceiver.
