The measurement of plant transpiration rate using heat pulse technology has the determination problem of peak -time which caused by thermal resistance. This paper presents the measurement and the processing approach of heat pulse signals, and the IIC communication between PIC MCU and digital potentiometer is researched. In addition, the lin- ear characteristic of digital potentiometer can be used into the feedback network of magnify circuit, consequently the de- tection precision is raised and the requirement of subsequent data collection equipment is reduced.
