A New Sensor-Based Temperature Measuring System with High Accuracy for Wide Temperature Range Applications

A new sensor-based temperature measuring system with high accuracy is presented in this paper. The temperature accuracy smaller then 0.02K is the measured performance of the measuring system after calibration at ten temperatures, over the -50℃to 300℃ targeted temperature range. Comparing with the traditional temperature measuring system, the advantages of the new sensor-based temperature measuring system are the high precision, immunity to noise, independent with the length of sensor wires and remote operation. And all these are at a low cost with less then 36mW of power consumption. Therefore the sensor-based temperature system is suitable for any field where reliable and accurate temperature measurement or a wide measurement range is necessary.
