Responding to: ???'s previous message
Improving accuracy goes hand in hand with narrowing bandwidth. For a DC signal, that means averaging filters. I would also try filtering the inputs in hardware, as high frequency edges can alias down and cause all sorts of havoc.

The pulsed approach of 10msec pulses means you need good high frequency response, which means you are more prone to interference. The energy but into the sensor will be at least 10 mJ, which might cause a significant self-heating effect. You will also need a supply rail of more than 5V.

      Precision is the same?            01/01/70 00:00

                     PT100 sensors            01/01/70 00:00      
   try another way, have a look at Linear T            01/01/70 00:00      
      No choice            01/01/70 00:00      
         it is still valid            01/01/70 00:00      
         The usual solution is...            01/01/70 00:00      
            As I said before            01/01/70 00:00      
               Whats the problem ?            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Acceptable limits            01/01/70 00:00      
                     hooking the PT100s up to differential in            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Thanks            01/01/70 00:00

                     Filtering MUST help. So, there's a mista            01/01/70 00:00      
                        Ditto, filtering must work            01/01/70 00:00      
                           Exactly!            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Errm.            01/01/70 00:00      
   Look at existing products for ideas            01/01/70 00:00      
      that will give you more problems than it            01/01/70 00:00      
         It's not what I suggested            01/01/70 00:00      
            No chance            01/01/70 00:00      
               Again, not what I meant            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Sorry            01/01/70 00:00      
   Switched Higher Current does help            01/01/70 00:00      
      I am interested, it took some search, fo            01/01/70 00:00      
      I heavily doubt this            01/01/70 00:00      
         not as to noise, but it does have the ef            01/01/70 00:00      
         higher current does help            01/01/70 00:00      
            You can use pulsing and filtering            01/01/70 00:00      
               It's the same as DC measurement            01/01/70 00:00      
                  How pulsing improves performance            01/01/70 00:00      
   Averaging(filtering) has the same effect            01/01/70 00:00
