RTDRTD
RESISTANCE TEMPERATURE DETECTORSRESISTANCE TEMPERATURE DETECTORS (RTDs).- (RTDs).- RTD’s functions as a result of RTD’s functions as a result of increasing increasing
resistance resistance in proportion to in proportion to increasing increasing temperaturetemperature. i.e, with a known current, as . i.e, with a known current, as temperature increases, voltage increases. As a temperature increases, voltage increases. As a known current is placed through the RTD, the known current is placed through the RTD, the output voltage indicates RTD resistance. Since the output voltage indicates RTD resistance. Since the relationship between the resistance and relationship between the resistance and temperature is known, the temperature can thus temperature is known, the temperature can thus be determined.be determined.
The resistivity of the metal used in a RTD is The resistivity of the metal used in a RTD is dependent upon the temperature. dependent upon the temperature. PlatinumPlatinum has has the best range and is the most common metal the best range and is the most common metal used.used.
