Temperature detection is an important element of many industries, allowing for the detection and/or tracking of various changes in settings, assemblies, or devices. One popular form of such technology is the resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensor, a type of passive temperature sensing device that relies on the principle that the electrical resistance of a metal will adjust in proportion to changes in temperature. As such, any electrical current sent through an RTD sensor will create a measurable resistance value that fluctuates based on temperatures. In this blog, we will discuss RTD sensors in more detail, allowing you to have a better understanding of what types exist and how they are used.

Inductors are passive electrical components found in a variety of devices and equipment. Playing a critical role in signal processing, sensing operations, transformers, and more, inductors are an important technology to understand. In this blog, we will highlight the design, function, and practical applications of inductors.
