  2. List of temperature sensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_temperature_sensors

    The integrated circuit sensor may come in a variety of interfaces — analogue or digital; for digital, these could be Serial Peripheral Interface, SMBus/I 2 C or 1-Wire.. In OpenBSD, many of the I 2 C temperature sensors from the below list have been supported and are accessible through the generalised hardware sensors framework [3] since OpenBSD 3.9 (2006), [4] [5]: §6.1 which has also ...

  3. HVAC control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVAC_control_system

    More complex HVAC systems can interface to Building Automation System (BAS) to allow the building owners to have more control over the heating or cooling units. [3] The building owner can monitor the system and respond to alarms generated by the system from local or remote locations.

  4. Arduino - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arduino

    Arduino (/ ɑː r ˈ d w iː n oʊ /) is an Italian open-source hardware and software company, project, and user community that designs and manufactures single-board microcontrollers and microcontroller kits for building digital devices.

  5. Resistance thermometer - Wikipedia

    is the resistance of the sensor at 100 °C. Pure platinum has α = 0.003925 Ω/(Ω·°C) in the 0 to 100 °C range and is used in the construction of laboratory-grade RTDs. [ citation needed ] Conversely, two widely recognized standards for industrial RTDs IEC 60751 and ASTM E-1137 specify α = 0.00385 Ω/(Ω·°C).

  6. Sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensor

    A chemical sensor array is a sensor architecture with multiple sensor components that create a pattern for analyte detection from the additive responses of individual sensor components. There exist several types of chemical sensor arrays including electronic, optical, acoustic wave, and potentiometric devices.

  7. Piezoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_sensor

    A piezoelectric sensor is a device that uses the piezoelectric effect to measure changes in pressure, acceleration, temperature, strain, or force by converting them to an electrical charge. The prefix piezo- is Greek for 'press' or 'squeeze'.

  8. Computer fan control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan_control

    As modern PCs grow more powerful so do their requirements for electrical power. Computers emit this electrical power as heat generated by all major components.Heat production varies with system load, where periods of compute-intensive activity generate much more heat than the idle time does.

  9. Smart thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_thermostat

    One issue with using a smart thermostat is the unreliability of the motion sensor. One of the main features of the smart thermostat is the ability to change the temperature when the sensor in the thermostat does not sense an occupant. The only sensor that is used though is the sensor in the thermostat.
