One of the joys of writing up the entries for the 2025 Component Abuse Challenge has come in finding all the different alternative uses for the humble transistor. This building block of all modern ...

Abstract: This article describes a highly energy-efficient Wheatstone bridge temperature sensor. To maximize sensitivity, the bridge is made from resistors with positive (silicided diffusion) and ...

Abstract: Augmented measurements of temperature distributions and the movement of heat are possible with multichannel, bendable temperature sensor films. In this paper, a method for manufacturing a ...
