Temperature Sensors - Analog and Digital Outputs come in various shapes and sizes, but one of the most popular forms of temperature sensors are the DS1721S/T&R type. These sensors are designed to provide high accuracy readouts of temperature, both in analog and digital form. They operate by sensing changes in temperature and then creating corresponding voltage or output signals.

The DS1721S/T&R consist of a thermistor, or a temperature-sensitive resistor, connected to a bridge of voltage reference diodes. The diodes provide a highly-stable reference voltage which allows the thermistor to accurately sense changes in temperature. The maximum probe range for a DS1721S/T&R sensor is approximately +300°C to -55°C, with a basic accuracy rated at 18mV for each one degree Celsius of temperature change.

When the temperature of the environment changes, it impacts the electrons in the thermistor. These electrons are pulled out of the wire, changing the overall resistance. As the resistance of the thermistor changes, its resistance is compared to the reference voltage generated by the diodes to create an output signal. The larger the temperature difference, the larger the output signal.

In addition to the reference voltage provided by the diodes, certain components of the DS1721S/T&R can also be adjusted to provide different, more refined readings. This can be done with a switch that allows for a voltage bypass or resistance adjustment. This can be useful when attempting to measure very small temperature variations. With the proper adjustment, the DS1721S/T&R can be used to accurately measure temperatures from 56.8°C to +125.5°C.

The DS1721S/T&R offers two output options: one analog and one digital. The analog output allows the sensor to send signals to a controller or system that processes signals in an analog form. This output signal can be a voltage signal or current signal depending on the setup, and is sent directly from the thermistor. The digital output sends a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal, which is a combination of analog and digital signals. This signal is sent to a logic processor, such as an Arduino or Raspberry Pi, so that readings can be graphically displayed on a computer or processor.

The many benefits provided by the DS1721S/T&R sensor make them a popular choice for temperature monitoring and measuring applications. They provide output signals that are both accurate and reliable, with digital and analog capability. The sensor also features a temperature range of +300°C to -55°C, with an adjustable tolerance of 0.06°C. With its simple setup and adjustable features, the DS1721S/T&R is an ideal temperature-sensing solution for numerous applications and systems.
