‘Thermocouples’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release USB DAQ device measures data from thermocouple from National Instruments, which we summarised at the time by saying "National Instruments (NI) has launched a USB data-acquisition (DAQ) device that measures and records temperature data from a thermocouple.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Package offers multi-instrument calibration from Time Electronics: "Time Electronics has released a Multifunction Calibrator/DMM/Software package for multi-instrument calibration.".
In July 2009, we covered the news from KIC Thermal Profiling - take a look at KIC launches second-generation Wave Surfer which says: "KIC, a provider of thermal process development and control products, has released the second-generation Wave Surfer: a self-contained measurement system for wave solder machines.".
Take a look also at the news release from National Instruments, Thermocouple module for data acquisition, as well as Reflow oven meets lead-free soldering requirements from Essemtec, and Melexis releases non-contact infrared thermometer from Melexis.
