Abstract :
Application of Universal Frequency-to-Digital Converter (UFDC-1) for design of low-cost, smart temperature sensors systems based on quasi-digital sensors is described in the paper. Designed sensors systems have self-adaptation and self-identification abilities. Experimental results have confirmed high metrological performances of designed sensors systems.
