MAX6675 Thermocouple Sensor Module

The MAX6675 Thermocouple Sensor Module makes use of the Maxim MAX6675 K-Thermocouple to digital converter IC to provide a microcontroller compatible digital serial interface (SPI compatible) to provide accurate temperature-compensated measurement of the supplied K-Type thermocouple sensor.

The data is output in a 12-bit resolution, SPI compatible, read-only format. MAX6675 converter resolves temperatures to 0.25°C, allows readings as high as +1024°C, and exhibits thermocouple accuracy of 8 LSBs for temperatures ranging from 0°C to +700°C.

Pin Function:

1. SO: The module’s serial output.   Your Arduino will read this output.
2. CS:  Chip Select.   Setting low selects the Module and tells it to supply an output that is synchronized with a clock
3. SCK: The Serial Clock… input from your Arduino.
4. VCC: 5V supply
5. GND:  Ground.
6. – (or Minus):   The K thermocouple minus input.
7. + ( or Plus):  The K Thermocouple plus input.

Package Includes:

1 x MAX6675 Thermocouple Sensor Module.
