Abstract :
The “A temperature sensor array recorder for fast multi-channel measurement” described in this article can be used for up to 2048 temperature sensors. The data sent to the system computer by the group parallel method are recorded in real-time and can be used for temperature variation computing or ambient temperature prediction. The real-time data can be analyzed and sent to the cloud for use as a basis for decision making. A relevant application would be the measurement, recording and analysis of electric vehicle battery temperatures. A thermistor sensor is often used to detect the ambient temperature, body temperature or the external contact temperature of an object. Its main features are low unit price and quick response. If one or two thousand sensors are in simultaneous used the rapid detection of temperatures in such a sensor array is an important direction and issue for study.
