As a young designer at a firm that builds lithium batteries, you are tasked with designing a sensor system that displays the temperature inside the battery pack. The range of temperatures that need to be displayed is from \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) to \(200^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). The output will be to a temperature calibrated \(0-5 \mathrm{~V}\) meter with \(\mathrm{O} \mathrm{V}\) equaling \(0^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(5 \mathrm{~V}\) equaling \(200^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\). In your research, you find two different sensors that meet your needs. One is a thermistor, the other a thermocouple. Their specs are shown in Figure P4-81.
