Reference
This reference guide offers detailed insights into temperature sensors, focusing on their driver, library, communication protocol, and API description. It highlights the thermistor technology within the sensor probe, ensuring high sensitivity and accuracy. The probe's stainless steel construction guarantees waterproof, moistureproof, and rustproof features. Compatible with Arduino, the sensor requires a pull-up resistor and sensor converter for operation, offering precise temperature detection within the range of -55℃~+125℃, with an accuracy of ±0.5°C. Accompanied by MakeCode Block module description, this guide is essential for understanding temperature sensors.
Principle
The thermistor in the sensor probe is sealed by the electrically conductive sealant to ensure the high sensitivity and accuracy of the sensor. Each pin of the chip is separated by the heat shrink tube to prevent the short-circuit. The shell of the probe is made of stainless steel, which makes the sensor waterproof, moistureproof, and rustproof.
Other Supplementary Information
The temperature sensor is compatible with Arduino. It must be used with a pull-up resistor and a sensor converter. Connect all parts together, power up and place the sensor probe into the object to be measured, the readings of the sensor will be displayed on the OLED module. This temperature sensor can be used in the temperature range -55℃~+125℃ to provide -10°C to +85°C temperature detection with an accuracy of ±0.5°C.
- Note: although the product can work normally under 125°C, please do not store sensor cable in the condition with temperature exceeding 100°C since it is made from PVC and is not as heatproof as the sensor.
