Depending how much money you want to spend, you can also get pt10k
and even pt100k RTD's, to satisfy particular needs for resolution,
self-heating, inductance, mass and the many and varied noises.

And if course, we cannot talk PT100 and fail to repeat the old pun:

	"PT100 is the gold standard for temperature measurement"
