  1. HOW DO TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY SENSORS WORK?

  2. What Are Temperature Sensors? 01 Thermocouples: These sensors consist of two different metals joined at one end. When the junction experiences a change in temperature, it generates a voltage that can be measured and converted into temperature readings. 02 Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs): RTDs use the principle that the electrical resistance of metal changes with temperature. As the temperature rises, the resistance increases, which can be measured and correlated to temperature. 03 Thermistors: These are temperature-sensitive resistors. Unlike RTDs, thermistors typically exhibit a decrease in resistance with an increase in temperature. 04 Infrared Sensors: These sensors measure the thermal radiation emitted by an object to determine its temperature without direct contact.

  3. How Do Humidity Sensors Work? 1. Capacitive Sensors: These sensors measure humidity based on changes in the dielectric constant of a polymer or metal oxide material. As humidity levels change, the material's capacitance changes, which can be measured and converted into humidity readings. Resistive Sensors: These sensors measure humidity through changes in the electrical resistance of a hygroscopic (moisture-absorbing) material. As the humidity level changes, so does the material's resistance. Thermal Conductivity Sensors: These sensors measure the change in thermal conductivity of air as humidity varies. Dry air has a different thermal conductivity compared to humid air, and this difference is used to determine humidity levels. 2. 3.
