Category: Meter Counter Circuits / Thermometer Circuits This circuit is also crossed to: Led circuits Views: 5588 Rank: 0 This LED thermometer is designed for in home use, to read temperatures between about 60 and 78 degrees Fahrenheit. It is based around a precision temperature sensor IC, the LM34DZ. This sensor require no calibration and can measure temperatures of between -50F and +300F. While the circuit shown here does not use the full range of that sensor, it can be modified to do so by simply changing the voltage reference to U2 at the sacrifice of precision.You will want to build the circuit with U1 and U2 in sockets in order to be able to complete calibration (which requires removal of these ICs). You can use any LED you want for D1 - D10, however blue LEDs have a higher voltage requirement so if you want to go blue for a modern look, they may appear more dim then red, yellow or green.

If you build the circuit with pin 9 tied to 9V, the circuit will be in graph mode and R8 should be 15 Ohms. To calibrate the circuit, you will need a voltmeter. Power the circuit up and let it sit for a few minutes for temperature to stabilize. Ground the negative lead of the meter and connect the positive lead to pins 6 and 7 of U2. Set R7 so the meter reads as close to 3.345V as possible. Now connect the positive lead of the meter to pin 4 of U2 and adjust R5 until the meter reads 2.545V. Finally, disconnect power to the circuit and remove U1 and U2 from their sockets. Measure the value of R3 with an ohmmeter and remember that value. Connect the ohmmeter across R1 and adjust R1 to a value of exactly 3 times the value of R3. Reinstall U1 and U2 and the circuit is ready for use. visit page.

Related circuits Simple Thermocouple Amplifier circuit Continuing with the thermocouple interface concept, the next step is to amplify the TC's millivolt signal into a more readable analog voltage, on the order of 0 to 5VDC. This simple circuit fits the bill. The LM358N is a dual op-amp IC. I'm quite sure any op-amp IC would do fine, just be sure it... Soil Heater For Plants Circuit A TDA1024 electronic thermostat senses soil temperature via thermistor R6. The circuit uses zero-crossing switching of the heater. The heater is made of elastic-coated steel wire. PI is used to set the temperature. The heater should have 2 or more resistance and operate from the 9-V transformer. This circuit controls a load (in this case a dc brushless fan) based on a temperature compared with a setpoint. THe transduced is a diode in the forward polarization regime. In fact when forward biased, the forward voltage drop accross a diode has a temperature dependance, in particular has a... Thermometer circuit with AD595 the entire circuit is comprised of integrated circuits. This makes for some easy organization when it goes to the circuit board for soldering. In addition, I used only 3 of the pins on the 3rd nixie tube for the hundreds position in the display. Since I was only using three, I decided to save a... Two-simple-temperature-to-time-converters Both of these converters use CMOS inverters.

The telephone-line tester consists of nothing more than a meter (that`s used to measure line voltage in the on- and off-hook state), three resistors (one of which is variable), a pushbutton switch, and a modular telephone connector. This project is easy enough for beginners, the only difficulties possibly arising from serial port hardware incompatibility from PC to PC. In the single-sensor version, you need only the sensor IC, a voltage regulator and and handful of diodes and resistors. Build it, and learn the secrets of IIC... When power is applied, the thermistor, a negative tc device, is at a high value. A1 saturates positive. This forces the LT3525A switching regulator"s output low, biasing Ql. As the heater warms, the thermistor"s value decreases. When itsinputs finally balance, A1 comes out of saturation and the... Digital Thermometer using a PIC Microcontroller
