Temperature measurements of photonic circuit components may be performed optically, exploiting a temperature-dependent spectral property of the photonic device to be monitored itself, or of a separate optical temperature sensor placed in its vicinity. By facilitating measurements of the temperature of the individual photonic devices rather than merely the photonic circuit at large, such optical temperature measurements can provide more accurate temperature information and help improve thermal design.

An electrical component including a polymeric body which (i) defines at least one electrical connection; or (ii) is configured for attachment to an electrical cable or wire; or (iii) is configured for attachment to an electrical apparatus, wherein the polymeric body or a portion thereof includes a thermochromic composition which has a first colour condition below a first threshold temperature and a second colour condition if the composition is heated above the first threshold temperature, and wherein the thermochromic composition maintains the second colour condition until it is cooled below a second threshold temperature.

The present invention relates to a temperature-change sensing substrate comprising a self-healing polyurethane polymer. More specifically, the present invention relates to a temperature-change sensing substrate having a self-healing polyurethane polymer matrix and a plurality of pores dispersed in the matrix. The temperature-change sensing substrate according to the present invention can be applied as a temperature-change sensor for preventing the spoiling of refrigerated or frozen food and medical supplies. For example, substrate, which was opaque when stored at −60° C., −50° C., −30° C., −20° C., −10° C. and the like, becomes transparent if the temperature rises to 0° C., 10° C., 20° C., 30° C. and the like, and thus a temperature-change sensor capable of checking storage conditions through a change in light transmittance can be provided.

A system includes a first printed circuit board (PCB), a temperature sensor, a switching circuit provided on the first PCB, and a controller. The temperature sensor is configured to measure temperature of at least an area of the first PCB. The controller is configured to trigger the switching circuit to turn off power to the first PCB, based at least in part on the temperature sensor detecting a temperature above a temperature threshold. The system is able to disrupt power much faster than conventional methods of power protection which may have a blind spot to certain areas of the first PCB, since these methods rely on power disruption when a maximum power is sensed.
