What can you do with a vacuum former? Vacuum forming is a manufacturing process by which a sheet of plastic is heated and pressed over a form to create a part. This process is used to create many of the products in your home such as plastic containers, tubs, sink units, and electrical enclosures. How […]
What is the relative humidity at dew point temperature?
What is the relative humidity at dew point temperature? The dew point is the temperature the air needs to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to achieve a relative humidity (RH) of 100%. At this point the air cannot hold more water in the gas form. What is meant by dew point temperature? […]

How can a diode be used as a temperature sensor?
How can a diode be used as a temperature sensor? Set the temperature to 25°C, “soak” the part for a few minutes, and record the voltage across the diode. Repeat at –40°C and +85°C. With three points taken, the slope can be determined. An expression for the diode voltage over temperature is derived by using […]
