ARDUINO T000200 THERMISTOR MODULE

Product Description:

  • The Thermistor is a resistor whose resistance varies significantly (more than in standard resistors) with temperature.
  • Output: This module's output approaches 5 V as the temperature increases. As the temperature decreases, it approaches 0 V. When connected to an input on the Arduino using the TinkerKit Shield, expect to read values between 0 and 1023.
  • (Note: any changes in the values will be slow and may not vary a great deal.)
  • Module description: This module features a thermistor, a signal amplifier, the standard TinkerKit 3-pin connector, a green LED that signals that the module is correctly powered, and a yellow LED whose brightness changes according to the temperature.
  • This module is a SENSOR. The connector is an OUTPUT which must be connected to one of the INPUT connectors on the TinkerKit Shield. 
Code Example

/*

Analog input, analog output, serial output

Reads an analog input pin, and T000200 Themistor Analog Sensor connected

to I0, maps the result to a range from 0 to 255

and uses the result to set the pulsewidth modulation (PWM) on a T010111

LED Module connected on O0.

Also prints the results to the serial monitor.
