The voltage ranges we expect from this three stage potential divider
The voltage ranges we expect from this three stage potential divider\footnote{
two stages are required for validation, a third stage is used to measure the current flowing
through the circuit to obtain accurate temperature readings}
are shown in figure \ref{fig:pt100vrange}. Note that there is
an expected range for each reading, for a given temperature span.
Note that the low reading goes down as temperature increases, and the higher reading goes up.
