Material Composition Front panel: blue coated metal panel with silk‑screen text and LED indicator window. Main circuit board: multi‑layer FR‑4 high‑temperature resistant printed circuit board. Electronic components: RTD constant‑current excitation circuit, thermocouple cold‑junction compensation circuit, high‑precision ADC, FPGA digital‑processing unit. Module housing: aluminum alloy electromagnetic shielding shell. Locking mechanism: stainless steel rack insertion latches. Connector: gold‑plated backplane connector and gold‑plated external‑termination terminal block.

Structural Features Standard single‑slot plug‑in module for 3500 instrument rack. Front‑panel LED status‑indicator group and pull‑out latch mechanism. Rear gold‑plated multi‑pin backplane connector for power‑supply and system‑bus communication. External termination version routes all temperature‑sensor wiring to rear terminal block, no internal barrier circuit. Internal metal‑shielding shell isolates analog temperature‑signal processing zone and digital‑logic zone.

Working Principle When channel configured for RTD input: constant‑current excitation circuit supplies constant current to RTD sensor, resistance change caused by temperature variation is converted into analog voltage signal. When channel configured for thermocouple input: thermoelectric potential signal enters conditioning circuit, built‑in cold‑junction‑compensation circuit compensates cold‑junction temperature offset. High‑precision ADC converts analog signal into digital quantity. FPGA and MCU unit complete digital filtering and temperature‑value conversion according to configured sensor type and parameters. Measured temperature value compares with pre‑programmed Alert and Danger alarm setpoints. Sensor break and short‑circuit fault will be detected and reported. Alarm flag is generated when alarm condition is satisfied and transmitted to system bus and relay module. Real‑time temperature data is uploaded through rack backplane bus to rack‑interface module for upper‑level configuration and diagnostic‑software access.
