Abstract

A system for sensing temperature in a vaporizer device is provided, the system including: an induction element; a susceptor element; a cartridge; and a temperature sensor circuit in thermal contact with the susceptor element, the temperature sensor circuit including: a capacitor, and an inductor, in which a resonant frequency of the temperature sensor circuit changes based on a temperature of the susceptor element, in which the induction element is electromagnetically coupled to the temperature sensor circuit, and in which the susceptor element is located within the cartridge and the temperature sensor circuit is located within the cartridge.
