Excessive heat can destroy computer components, which means that keeping your system cool can extend its life. While the computer probably already monitors the temperature of the CPU, case heat can ...

Adafruit has announced the availability of a new temperature sensor and fan controller they have created in the form of the EMC2101 I2C. Priced at just $5.50 the fan controller and temperature sensor ...

Designers face many chal lenges when placing thermal-sensing components in embedded systems. The first comes in choosing the temperature sensor. It is often not obvious whether a thermistor, resistive ...

The project illustrates the control of a PC fan speed and using an Arduino microcontroller to read a LM35 temperature sensor. The use of an optocoupler is covered along with Pulse Width Modulation ...

Temperature measurement has long been vital to most industrial and manufacturing operations. It has taken on new importance in the era of smart buildings and homes, where automation of such functions ...
