Overview
Thermocouples are very sensitive, requiring a good amplifier with a cold-compensation reference, as well as
calculations to handle any non-linearities. For a long time we've suggested our MAX31855K breakout, which works
great but is only for K-type thermocouples. Now we're happy to offer a great new thermocouple amplifier/converter
that can handle just about
any
type of thermocouple, and even has the ability to give you notification when the
temperature goes out of range, or a fault occurs. Very fancy!
This converter communicates over 4-wire SPI and can interface with any K, J, N, R, S, T, E, or B type thermocouple
