Solid State Temperature Measurement The LM335 solid-state temperature sensor produces an output of 10mV
per degree Kelvin. Kelvin can be converted to Celsius by subtracting 273 or 2.73 volts
from the reading. The sensors high sensitivity allow it to be used with 10-bit
or 12-bit analog inputs directly with only the use of a 1K ohm bias resistor. The
following diagram shows the connection of an LM335 to an ADR112

Their phone number is 1-800-344-4539 and costs around $5 U.S. Digi-Key accepts all major credit cards and the part is always in stock.) |
