High Temperature Component and Data Link Evaluation

Wright, Andrew A.; Cashion, Avery T.; Tiong, Francis

Evaluation of high temperature (HT) microcontrollers for Geothermal applications. The goal was to evaluate the limited microcontrollers capable of operating above 200 degrees Celsius. The knowledge obtained from this research has been documented for contributing to future development of high temperature geothermal tools. Along with this research, a HT data link for communications was developed and evaluated, also for HT geothermal tools.
