We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Temperature measurement",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Sensor signal interface circuit monitors patients from
ZMD America, which we summarised at the time by saying "The ZMD21013 can dramatically reduce the average overall bill of materials and power consumption of an entire sensor-based system".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Signal conditioner upgrades to 14bit resolution from
ZMD America: "Resistive bridge signal conditioner IC combines high accuracy amplification with analogue-to-digital conversion of a differential input".
In September 2007, we covered the news from STMicroelectronics
concerning its STTS424 and STTS424E02
- take a look at Temperature sensors protect PCs
which says: "The STTS424 is a stand-alone digital temperature sensor, while the STTS424E02 integrates the temperature sensor with a 2Kbit serial presence detect (SPD) EEPROM".
Take a look also at the news release from ATC Semitec, Thermistor sensor shrinks for medical devices,
as well as USB DMM has all applications covered from Keithley Instruments,
and Dual-display multimeters have graphical edge from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments).
