A New Structure for Direct Measurement of Temperature Based on Negative Temperature Coefficient Thermistor and Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System

Thermistors are very commonly used for narrow temperature-range high-resolution applications, such as in medicine, calorimetry, and near ambient temperature measurements. In particular, Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) thermistor is very inexpensive and highly sensitive, whose sensing temperature range and sensitivity are highly limited due to the intrinsic nonlinearity and self-heating p...

Sensor System with Accelerometer for Tilt Measurement

Presented paper describes design and realization of a sensor system for tilt measurement in x and y axes directions in the range of 680°. For construction non-standard connection with accele rometer is used. Measurement is controlled by a microprocessor, measured data are sent to a PC via RS232. The PC is used for data storage, further calculations and display of measured tilt. Convertor of log...

A Practical Evaluation of ZigBee Sensor Networks for Temperature Measurement

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) offer numerous advantages over traditional networks, such as elimination of costly wires, enhanced monitoring precision and larger area coverage. This paper presents the design and implementation of a mine temperature monitoring based on sensor networks. For the proposed monitoring schema, we evaluated the performance and the interoperability of sensor network wi...

Nano-CMOS thermal sensor design optimization for efficient temperature measurement

We present a novel and efficient thermal sensor design methodology. The growing demand for power management on VLSI systems drives the need for accurate thermal sensors. Conventional design techniques for on-chip thermal sensors in nanometer technologies consume expensive design iterations and result in increased power consumption and area overhead. Power-efficient, high-sensitivity thermal sen...
