MAX6675 Module + K Type Thermocouple Temperature Sensor

MAX6675 Module + K Type Thermocouple Temperature Sensor info

A thermocouple or thermocouple is a kind of temperature sensor. It consists of two different conductive materials. When the two ends of these materials are joined (hot spot) and heated, the tension is obtained at the other ends (cold spot). The value of this tension depends on the type of material used and the amount of heating of the junction. Regardless of the hot spot and the cold spot temperature distribution, the generated voltage is proportional to the temperature difference between the hot spot and the cold spot.

This product allows you to make highly accurate temperature measurements with your microcontroller cards. The MAX6675 consists of a thermocouple booster module and a K-type thermocouple. It has cold point compensation (-20 ~ + 80 ° C) and has 0.25 ° C sensitivity.
