A Thermocouple is a terrific way to measure temperature. The effects of temperature change on dissimilar metals produces a measurable voltage. But to make that measurement you need an amplifier circuit designed for the thermocouple being used. Linear Technology LTC 1049 Low Power Zero-Drift Operational Amplifier with Internal Capacitors While researching “Zero Drift Amplifiers” as

INTERACTIVE SOFTWARE TO SOLVE CROSSTALK PROBLEMS
A link to this video demonstrating PCB cross-talk ended up in my mailbox the other day as I tend to stay on the mailing lists of the some of the high end CAD companies. There are some really interesting and powerful “mega-tools” that do things like plot noise density for decoupling analysis and extremely high
