RasPI NTC Thermistor ADC Script for the ADC DAC Pi
We are thrilled to announce that GitHub user OZ1LQO has developed an excellent Python script for integrating NTC thermistors with our ADC DAC Pi Raspberry Pi development board. This script simplifies the process of measuring temperature with high precision using NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistors and our versatile ADC DAC Pi.
Understanding NTC Thermistors and Their Applications
NTC thermistors are temperature-sensitive resistors that exhibit a decrease in resistance as temperature increases. They are widely used in various applications due to their accuracy and sensitivity, including:
- Temperature sensing and monitoring: Ideal for applications requiring precise temperature measurement.
- Temperature compensation: Used in circuits to compensate for temperature variations.
- Over-temperature protection: Employed in devices to prevent overheating by triggering alarms or shutdowns when temperatures exceed safe limits.
The ADC DAC Pi
Our ADC DAC Pi is designed to provide high-resolution analog-to-digital (ADC) and digital-to-analog (DAC) conversion capabilities. It is perfect for integrating with various sensors, including NTC thermistors, to create accurate and reliable measurement systems.
OZ1LQO’s Python script for using NTC thermistors with our ADC DAC board is a valuable resource for anyone looking to implement precise temperature sensing in their projects. By providing a straightforward and effective solution, this script enhances the functionality of the ADC DAC board and opens up new possibilities for temperature monitoring and control applications.
We encourage you to download and explore the script from the GitHub repository.
