New Math Technique Increases Temperature Accuracy Over 20,000%

By Elio Mazzocca, April 23, 2009

Thermistors are extremely nonlinear devices. Because of the limitations of the mathematical model used, the devices’ ultimate accuracy is hardly ever fully realized due to the extra computational burden required to calculate the temperature from an accura

Use Throwaway Camera Parts For A High-Voltage Flash Unit
