We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Temperature sensor",
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 Resistor smoothes out photodiode performance from
Maxim Integrated Products, which we summarised at the time by saying "I2C-controlled 128-position digital resistor uses a logarithmic scale specifically designed to linearise the control of avalanche photodiode voltages in fibre optic modules".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Flash microcontroller runs down to 1.8V from
Zilog: "The new F1680 Series is claimed to offer Zilog customers the best cost/performance solution of any 8bit mixed mode Flash MCU for a variety of applications".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Microbridge
concerning its MBW-303 network
- take a look at System corrects for assembly variations
which says: "The MBW-303 allows sensor offset calibration and temperature compensation after final assembly, which negates all cumulative errors associated with the assembly processes".
Take a look also at the news release from Texas Instruments (April 2006-), Sensors keep watch over processors and FPGAs,
as well as Small temperature sensor suits tight applications from Texas Instruments (April 2006-),
and Convertor stays stable with multiple inputs from Linear Technology Corp.
