We have something called "Resistive Senders". There are two sensors connected to our Microprocessor based hardware platform. The sensors are Resistance Temperature Devices(RTDs) and Thermistor. RTD is used to measure motor temperature. Thermistor is used to measure temperature of some Generator or something.
Basically, Hardware and software work together to read sensor resistance and use Resistance/Temperature Tables to convert resistance to temperature to find out how hot or cold are motors and generators.
Besides understanding our Resistive Sender Design, I like to know if there are other designs out there. How can I start out with basic Resistive Sender information and move on to more advance stuff?
What does sender mean in Resistive Sender?
Thanks.
