Abstract
Methods and systems a method of assembling a proximity probe are provided. The method includes determining a coil wire dimension and coil geometry for the probe such that a resistance versus temperature profile of the coil is approximately constant when the coil is excited with an excitation frequency of approximately 150 kilohertz to approximately 350 kilohertz, and adjusting the coil geometry such that a resistance versus temperature profile of the coil is substantially constant.
