An information handling system includes a memory module having a first thermal sensor for a first memory channel, and a second thermal sensor for a second memory channel. A processor receives a first temperature from the first thermal sensor and a second temperature from the second thermal sensor, and performs a first high bandwidth access of the first memory channel. In response to a predetermined amount of time ending, the processor: receives a third temperature from the first thermal sensor and a fourth temperature from the second thermal sensor; determines a first temperature delta based on a difference between the third and first temperatures; and determines a second temperature delta based on a difference between the fourth and second temperatures. Based on the first and second temperature deltas, the processor determines whether the first or second memory channel is an upstream memory channel.

A remote temperature monitoring system includes a first unit operatively connected to one or more temperature sensors for sensing the temperature of one or more materials or food items being cooked or heated. The first unit transmits the sensed temperature to a second unit that is located remotely from the first unit during heating. The second unit is programmable with the desired temperature and/or heating parameters of the item. By monitoring the temperature status of the item over time, the system determines when the food has reached the desired temperature or degree of cooking, and notifies the user.

The invention relates to a thermocouple (17) suspended from a part (26, 27) that can be locked onto a connecting section of the measuring stick, which comprises an opening in the form of a guiding cone (30) for inserting the thermocouple. The thermocouple is contained in a flexible cable (24) that can slide in a sheath (35) of the central compartment (16) which houses the thermocouple (17). A spring (34) can be added to lightly press the end of the thermocouple to the end of the housing thereof.

A device monitors the operating temperature of at least one set of bearings in a plurality of sets of bearings. The at least one set of bearings is arranged between a shaft and a carrier. The carrier has at least one temperature sensor that senses the temperature of the at least one set of bearings and generates a signal representative of an operating temperature of the at least one set of bearings. The at least one temperature sensor is operatively electrically connected to at least one controller. The controller processes the signal from the temperature sensor, including determining the operating temperature of the respective at least one set of bearings and whether the operating temperature of the respective at least one set of bearings exceeds at least one threshold temperature. The controller memory holds a unique identifier associated with the at least one bearing set.
