INTRODUCTION Traditionally, medical science has depended on a variety of diagnostic tests administered by medical personnel to either detect the onset of an illness or to monitor its progress. More recently, this focus has been supplemented by a strategy of health maintenance and disease prevention. Both of these strategies benefit from the frequent testing of individuals. Of … [Read more...]
Thermal Management and Safety Regulation of Smart Watches
ABSTRACT A smartwatch is one of the most popular wearable devices now. Along with battery life and security, thermal safety is the most common concern. We show how to meet ergonomic standards for users and predict thermal performance in typical scenarios. Thermal simulation software applied at the design stage can provide guidance on the use of heat-spreading materials and … [Read more...]

Thermocouples Basics Part 2: How They Are Made and Its Measurement System
Continuing from part 1, and the advantages of thermocouples, we will now visit the process to make a thermocouple and its measurement system. The way thermocouples are made is very simple. We have a thermocouple welder, shown in Figure 1, as a small machine. The ends of the two wires are twisted to digital wires together, and then each set of wires touches to the point where … [Read more...]
Thermocouple Basics Part 1: Advantages to Multi-Channel Isolated Thermocouples
Multichannel isolated thermocouples is a system that RECOM developed for use in a test lab. We will discuss how this will be useful for others to know the advantages and disadvantages of such a system. What is a thermocouple? It is two different types of metals that are joined together. In figure 1, we have a metal that's called chromel, and another one called alumel. When … [Read more...]
