13  RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors) are a kind of temperature sensors
14  used to get a linear voltage to temperature reading within a give range
15  (usually 0 to 100 degrees Celsius).
16
17  When an io-channel measures the output voltage across an RTD such as a
18  PT1000, the interesting measurement is almost always the corresponding
19  temperature, not the voltage output. This binding describes such a circuit.
20
21  The general transfer function here is (using SI units)
22
23    V = R(T) * iexc
24    R(T) = r0 * (1 + alpha * T)
25    T = 1 / (alpha * r0 * iexc) * (V - r0 * iexc)
26
27  The following circuit matches what's in the examples section.

63    description: |
64      alpha can also be expressed in micro-ohms per ohm Celsius. It's a linear
65      approximation of the resistance versus temperature relationship
66      between 0 and 100 degrees Celsius.
67
68      alpha = (R_100 - R_0) / (100 * R_0)
69
70      Where, R_100 is the resistance of the sensor at 100 degrees Celsius, and
71      R_0 (or r-naught-ohms) is the resistance of the sensor at 0 degrees
72      Celsius.
73
74      Pure platinum has an alpha of 3925. Industry standards such as IEC60751
75      and ASTM E-1137 specify an alpha of 3850.
76
77  r-naught-ohms:
78    description: |
79      Resistance of the sensor at 0 degrees Celsius.
80      Common values are 100 for PT100, 500 for PT500, and 1000 for PT1000
