pickandplace.wordpress.com writes: I started with making the TMP102 temperature sensor work. Nothing to say in particular, it’s just an other I2C-small-package-sensor. Or rather SMBus, but apart from the minimum speed clock requirements on the SMBus, the two protocols are alike. Designing a simple and cheap temperature logger – [Link]

How to Set Up the DHT11 Humidity Sensor on an Arduino


https://www.electronics-lab.com/set-dht11-humidity-sensor-arduino/

circuitbasics.com has a new tutorial on how to interface DHT11 humidity sensor to Arduino board. Sample code is provided Because of their low cost and small size, DHT11 humidity and temperature sensors are perfect for lots of different DIY electronics projects. Some projects where the DHT11 would be useful include remote weather stations, home environment control systems, and […]

Sergey Kiselev designed and built an Intel Quark D2000 micrcontroller based Environmental sensors board: This is a fairly small (51 x 51 mm) board, equipped with a low power Intel Quark D2000 microcontroller, and several sensors (accelerator, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure), as well as a mikroBUS compatible header and a Grove compatible connectors, that can be […]

Temperature alarm for boiling milk


https://www.electronics-lab.com/temperature-alarm-boiling-milk/

Domen Ipavec shares his temperature alarm for boiling milk. Temperature alarm uses an Atmel attiny841 microcontroller, DS18B20 high temperature waterproof temperature sensor from adafruit, 2×16 HD44780 LCD and a buzzer to do its job. Anyone who has ever boiled milk on the stove knows, that it has a nasty habit of overflowing. That is why I […]

Using Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) With Arduino


https://www.electronics-lab.com/using-resistance-temperature-detector-rtd-arduino/

Most of hardware developers have used a temperature sensor in one or more of theirs projects. There are many types of temperature sensors, such as LM35, thermistors, and resistance thermometers. These types differ in response speed, temperature ranges, accuracy, and other factors. Resistance thermometer, which also known as Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD), is a device […]

Clinical-grade human body temperature sensor has ±0.1°C accuracy

Maxim Integrated has posted details of the MAX30205 temperature sensor for thermometer applications. The sensor accurately measures temperature and provide an overtemperature alarm/interrupt/shutdown output. by Graham Prophet @ edn.com The chip converts the temperature measurements to digital form using a high-resolution, sigma-delta, ADC. Accuracy meets clinical thermometry specification of the ASTM E1112 when soldered on […]

Introducing the BMP180 barometric sensor


https://www.electronics-lab.com/introducing-bmp180-barometric-sensor/

A how-to on using the BMP180 barometric sensor with the Arduino @ Random Nerd Tutorials: The BMP180 barometric sensor (model GY-68) is the one in the following figure (front and back view). It is a very small module with 1mm x 1.1mm (0.039in x 0.043in). It measures the absolute pressure of the air around it. […]
