Circuit provides cold-junction compensation
Mark Maddox @ edn.com has a design idea on cold-junction compensation using AD7708. The accuracy of any circuit or system that uses a thermocouple to determine the temperature of a process is limited by the accuracy of the method used to perform cold-junction compensation. In a...
