description | Smart sensors have been used in many engineering monitoring and control applications. This work focuses on the development of a new type of clinical Bluetooth thermometer, based on an improved low-power resistive transducer circuit. Most existing resistive transducers use relatively complicated circuits with higher cost and power consumption. To tackle these problems, especially in real applications, an improved low-power resistive transducer circuit is proposed in this work and is used to develop smart Bluetooth thermometers. The parameters of the resistive transducer circuit are selected by quantitative analysis and optimization to improve the performance of the low-power resistive transducer circuit. The effectiveness of the proposed design technology was verified by tests. The temperature measurement error of the new smart Bluetooth thermometer is less than 0.1 °C, which can not only meet the clinical use requirements but also has lower cost and power consumption. |
