CHAPTER 1
5. Temperature control range depends primarily on the type of thermistor and TE module used. The range can be extended higher and
lower by selecting the appropriate components. See Appendix B for more details.
6. Accuracy figures quoted are typical for a 10 Kohm thermistor; accuracy figures are relative to calibration standard. Both resolution
and accuracy are dependent on the user defined configuration of the instrument.
7. Accuracy depends on the sensor model selected; both resolution and accuracy are dependent on the user defined configuration of
the instrument; RTD operation requires TSC-595 option.
8. Over any 1 hour period, half-scale output; short term temperature stability is a strong function of the thermal environment of the
thermistor and TE module. Room air currents in particular can easily cause fluctuations of 0.1
o
C in an exposed mounting
configuration.
9. Over any 24 hour period, half-scale output
Our goal is to make the best laser diode instrumentation available anywhere. To
achieve this, we need your ideas and comments on ways we can improve out
products. We invite you to contact us at any time with your suggestions.

Temperature Calculation Methods AD590 or LM335 calibrated with two-point method;
thermistors are calibrated by storing three constants of
the Steinhart-Hart equation in internal non-volatile
memory
