Description
The MIKROE-1197 THERMO Click Board integraes MAX31855K, a sophisticated thermocouple-to-digital converter with a built-in 14-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) from Analog Devices. THERMO Click is a compact add-on board that provides accurate temperature measurements. The MAX31855K and PCC-SMP connector combination supports high-accuracy temperature measurement ideal for thermostatic, process-control, and monitoring applications.
The function of the thermocouple is to sense a difference in temperature between two ends of the thermocouple wires. The thermocouple’s “hot” junction can be read across the operating temperature range, which for the MAX31855K is between -270 and 1372C with a sensitivity of about 41uV/C. It also features cold-junction compensation sensing and correction, a digital controller, and associated control logic.
