Abstract: Five basic temperature sensors arc analyzed and compared, from the viewpoint of a user requiring i oodcrate range ( i . e . , less than lOOC) f a i r l y high accuracy ttnperature monitor. Some typical nonltor c i r c u i t s will be b-lefly described. It li shown by the typical circuits that sensor nonlinear!ty is not a major problem for these applications. A figure of merit Is presented which f a c i l i t a t e s comparison of the five sensors on the basis of s e n s i t i v i t y and stabili t y . The figure of merit Indicates that commercially available platinum resistance sensors and thermistors are more suitable for this class of temperature conitors than are thernocouples, quartz c r y s t a l s , or s i l i c o n rcslst.nnce sensors
