Temperature Measurement Projects

temperature sensor

A Digital temperature meter using an LM35 temperature sensor using PIC16F688

Introduction A digital thermometer is a good choice of project for beginners who just stepped in to the world of microcontrollers because it provides an opportunity to learn using sensors to measure the real world signals that are analog in nature. This article describes a similar project based on a PIC16F688 microcontroller and an LM35

data logger

A Beginner’s data logger project using PIC12F683 microcontroller

It is a very simple data logger project based on PIC12F683 microcontroller. The microcontroller reads temperature values from a temperature sensor on a regular interval basis and stores them into its internal EEPROM memory. The recorded temperatures can be later transferred to a PC through serial interface. I originally published this project on electronics-lab.com last summer.

Measurement of temperature and relative humidity using DHT11 sensor and PIC microcontroller using PIC16F628A

Measurement and control of temperature and relative humidity finds applications in numerous areas. These days devices are available which have both temperature and humidity sensors with signal conditioning, ADC, calibration and communication interface all built inside them. The use of such smart sensors greatly simplify the design and reduces the overall cost. We discussed in

CARLETON PROJECTS

CARLETON PROJECTS

This is the Carleton Weather Station, at least the computer end of it.  The data acquisition  system is to the left and the web server is the Mac computer.  It is located in Olin 206. This is the Carleton Weather Station’s data acquisition system.  This replaced a 1995 Mac and some daq boards.  This daq

The Microchipoptera Project

The Microchipoptera Project

Motivation:     The echolocating bat is a wonderful animal that is unique in so many different ways:  it is the only truly flying mammal, it can use air-coupled sonar to navigate in complete darkness while flying, it can allow its body temperature to drop to as low as 1degC (torpor) to save energy, and it
