Abstract From the Canadian patent

A transmitter (100) in a process control system includes a resistance sensor (110) sensing a process variable and providing a sensor output. Sensor monitoring circuitry (116) coupled to the sensor (110) provides a secondary signal related to the sensor (110). Analog-to-digital conversion circuitry (114) coupled to the sensor output and the sensor monitoring circuitry (116) provides a digitized sensor output and a digitized secondary signal. Output circuitry (124) coupled to a process control loop (102 104) transmits a , residual life estimate related to residual life of the sensor. A memory stores a set of expected results (120) related to the secondary signal and to the sensor …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 20, 1997. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended October 20, 2017.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 20, 2019.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
