    Sounds like marketing foo.

    I have a 10+ year old Weller station with digital temp adjustment, and I don’t recall it having a cpu and ram.

      So, what’s updating the display? Power supply imps?

      digital temp adjustment

      Digital temp adjustment is different than a sensor that tells you the exact temp at the tip.

      Pretty sure any 10+ year old unit is just setting a temp, not telling you the actual temp through a measurement.
