Description
Breakout board for the MAX31855K digital thermocouple interface IC. Measured temperature range is -270C-1372C with known thermal characteristics and output resolution of 0.25C. This sensor supports a larger operating range (specifically in the negative range) than its predecessors, the MAX6674 and MAX6675, though it is not pin-pin compatible. This board is interfaced with a 0.1" 1x8 pin header, has four vertical mini thermocouple connectors and four mounting holes for standoffs and 4-40 screws.
Features
- Measures -270C-1372C (extended range)
- 14-bit SPI interface
- Supply voltage range: 3.0V - 3.6V
- Detects shorts to GND or Vcc
- Detects open thermocouple
- Other versions available (K, J, N, T and E standard). Contact Customer Service to place a custom order.
- Mounting holes for 4-40 sized screws
- Connections are spaced for 0.1" pin header
- Designed, manufactured, tested and shipped from the USA
