An improved temperature transducer for use with a KYZ pulse data recorder. A temperature sensor provides a temperature signal proportional to ambient temperature. An integrator circuit and comparator circuit responsive to the temperature signal provides pulses at a frequency which is proportional to temperature. The pulses are provided over the standard three-wire KYZ pulse cable to the input of the data recorder. The circuit is extremely low power, highly accurate, and requires only the three-wire KYZ connection. No external power supply or cable is required, since the circuit draws its power from the pull up resistors in the KYZ data recorder input. Also disclosed are techniques for improving accuracy and minimizing power consumption in the circuit, and an improved integrator circuit.
