05_analog_thermometer

Measures the temperature by using a Microchip MCP9700A analog thermometer (parameteres: 10 mV/C, 500 mV offset, VCC= 2.3-5.5V). The result is printed to standard output.

Hardware requirements:

  • FRDM-KL25Z board
  • MCP9700A analog thermometer connected to the A0 (PTB0) analog input
