Description

SparkFun Thermocouple Breakout - MAX31855K Boards, Sparkfun Originals, TemperatureThe SparkFun MAX31855K Thermocouple Breakout is a simple 14 bit resolution, SPI compatible, serial interface thermocouple digitizer that makes reading a wide range of temperatures possible. A thermocouple works by taking two wires made of dissimilar metals, connecting them at the two ends, and making a temperature gradient between one end and the other (a hot end and a cold one). Once this is achieved, a voltage potential is formed and current flows.

The SparkFun MAX31855K Thermocouple Breakout is a simple 14-bit resolution, SPI-compatible, serial interface thermocouple digitizer that makes reading a wide range of temperatures possible. A thermocouple works by taking two wires made of dissimilar metals, connecting them at the two ends, and making a temperature gradient between one end and the other (a ‘hot’ end and a ‘cold’ one). Once this is achieved, a voltage potential is formed and current flows. The SparkFun Thermocouple Breakout takes a standard Type-K thermocouple in one end, digitizes the temperature measured and sends that data out the other end via a SPI interface, thereby interpreting the data and translating it for you to read!

With the SparkFun Thermocouple Breakout, the thermocouple?s hot junction can be read from -200�C to +700�C with an accuracy of �2�C while the cold junction, inside the MAX31855K, can only range from -20�C to +85�C while maintaining �2�C accuracy. The MAX31855K constantly measures the temperature of the cold junction using an internal temperature-sensing diode. The MAX31855K requires a power source from +3.0V to +3.6V (+3.0V nominal) and only draws 1.5mA maximum.

The Thermocouple Breakout is designed to accept a standard thermocouple connector, for convenience and compatibility with probes you may already own. These connectors aren?t necessary, and you could solder a thermocouple directly into the through holes labeled ?+? and ?-?. If you decide to solder the thermocouple directly to the breakout board, it is recommended that the thermocouple be mounted for strain relief to avoid breaking the thin wires. Notches for a zip-tie or wire wrapping have been provided in the PCB opposite the header for this purpose.

Zebra print clutch purse

I love this Zebra print clutch purse. I used it on Sunday with all black. What a great pop of color. Value for the money was just right. Does not look or feel cheap. I highly recommend this purse Wanda

Most purses are neutral, why not change it up!!
Color: Wht/Bk
I really like this purse. It’s sassy! It is not leather. It doesn’t hold much. But even so, I would purchase the different colors
