Abstract
In a particular embodiment of the present disclosure, an apparatus is disclosed for improving for the stability of a resistance temperature detector (RTD). In this particular embodiment, the apparatus includes an RTD having a case surrounding a resistive meander deposited on a substrate. The RTD also includes a pull-down resistor. A first end of the resistive meander is configured for coupling to a positive power supply. The second end of the resistive meander is coupled to a first end of the pull-down resistor. The second end of the pull-down resistor is coupled to a ground. The case of the RTD is also coupled to the ground.
