What Is a USB Temperature Sensor?
A USB temperature sensor is a sensor device designed to measure ambient temperature while simultaneously transmitting data and receiving power through a USB port.
These sensors serve various purposes, including detecting abnormal temperature rises to prevent system overheating, monitoring occupancy, and collecting temperature-related data.
USB temperature sensors are known for their compact size and ease of installation, leveraging the convenience of USB ports to obtain accurate temperature information.
Typically, these devices integrate a temperature sensor with a USB interface, enabling them to perform temperature measurements and data transmission simultaneously. They not only provide real-time temperature readings on-site but can also monitor temperatures remotely as long as the device is powered.
