Temperature Detectors: Rev. 0 IC-01

This document discusses different types of temperature detectors and their circuitry. It describes resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), which measure temperature by relating the resistance of metal to temperature. Thermocouples are also covered, which create small voltages from the junction of two dissimilar metals related to temperature. Finally, the document examines bridge circuits and temperature detection circuitry used to precisely measure temperatures from these sensors and compensate for environmental factors.
