Researchers at the University of Arkansas and the University of Michigan have reported the first use of ultra-low power ...

A temperature controller is an instrument that controls temperatures, often without extensive operator involvement. In a temperature controller system, the controller accepts a temperature sensor as ...

Sensor response time is an important factor in control loop performance. In general, faster-responding sensors lead to better control loop performance. For steam temperature control in a fossil-fired ...

Repairing reach-in coolers and freezers with electronic temperature controllers can be challenging at times. Some failures are easy to troubleshoot and repair, but others can be frustrating. For ...

Proper thermal dissipation is an essential rule for nowadays electronics. The best operating temperature for the electronic components is 25 degrees (standard room temperature). Thermal dissipation in ...

This temperature profile is one of the principal reasons why we need a PID controller, which will be able to very accurately follow the required dwells and slopes, while also avoiding big oscillations ...

One of the joys of writing up the entries for the 2025 Component Abuse Challenge has come in finding all the different alternative uses for the humble transistor. This building block of all modern ...
