It is known that the p-n diode can be the basis of an accurate thermometer for cryogenic temperatures up to about 200°C. A constant current is maintained through the diode and the voltage across it ...
In 1807, Thomas Young discovered that stress in a material (F/A) is linearly proportional to the strain (change in length/original length) in that material. This, in turn, led to the discovery of a ...
This circuit drives a resistive heater element with a low-frequency, pulse-width modulation (PWM) voltage source, providing heat output that's directly and linearly proportional to the duty cycle of ...
