Temperature Monitoring and Protection

In designing personal electronics, industrial or medical applications, engineers must address some of the same challenges: how to increase performance, add features and shrink form factors. Along with these considerations, they must carefully monitor temperature to ensure safety and protect systems and consumers from harm.

This e-book features TI application briefs that present design considerations for various applications using different temperature-sensing technologies. The chapters first describe the main temperature challenges, followed by a focus on design considerations for applications, assessing trade-offs between temperature accuracy and application size while considering sensor placement.
