 John Booher, of TotalTemp Technologies, has
published a new Blog topic titled, "Cascade Temperature Algorithm Demonstrates Thermal
Testing Goals Reached Faster with the Potential of Differential." Per John's
post: "Having a specific requirement to test a product to a given temperature profile,
how does one show that the actual temperature requirements are being achieved? Many
times, there are parts of a device to be tested that have different heat capacities
and also possible active load heat sources. A single point temperature control algorithm
can have trouble effectively dealing with these variables. Additionally, while it
may be tempting to say that a temperature setpoint has been achieved ..."
