RoodMicrotec N.V. and Angst+Pfister Sensors and Power AG announced their cooperation for testing semiconductor-based temperature sensors. These highly accurate sensors are able to measure extremely fine temperature differences down to +/-0.1 degC in wide temperature ranges from -45 degC to 130 degC. Such sensitive and particularly accurate sensors will subsequently be used in industrial applications, in medical technology, and in the automotive sector and thus have to be tested with the precision.

In addition, these sensors have a very small drift, a repetition accuracy of 0.01 degC and a extremely fast reaction speed. Another advantage is that the sensor can be customized. The housing, the sensor technology, or theables can be specially adapted to customer requirements.
