Miniature Quartz Temperature Sensor

The TS Quartz Temperature Sensors are tuning-fork quartz crystals vibrating in a torsional mode. They are designed so that their frequency is both extremely sensitive to temperature and highly linear. For example, the 172.0 kHz design has a sensitivity of roughly +46.4 ppm/OC. This high sensitivity offers the ability to detect fine changes in temperature—the degree depending on the implementation. Further, this frequency-based technique has the advantage of being immune to amplitude noise in the measurement system—a feature not shared by thermocouple, thermistor, or RTD based temperature sensing techniques. Lastly, remote temperature sensing is possible by using an antenna to pick up the frequency of the EM waves emitted by the sensor.
