ABSTRACT |
In medical profession, body temperature indicates the state of one health. In making normal thermal measurement, contagious disease may be spread through infected equipment. We developed disposable thermal sensor based on silicon resistor for measurement of body temperature. The sensor is based on resistor fabricated using typical silicon wafer processes. It¿s simple yet sensitive. Being oxides the sensor is chemically inactive. Additions of a simple transduction circuit plus a microcontroller are required to form a complete instrument.
