 - INT
|
Return |
|
|
ReadRawDataADC |
| Returns the thermocouple temperature from the last sample as an integer value in Degrees C. | |
 - LONG
|
Return |
|
|
ReadReference_Float |
| Returns the reference (IC die) temperature from the last sample as a floating point. Use Sample first, which samples both reference & themocouple temperatures. | |
 - FLOAT
|
Return |
|
|

Properties |
|
Thermocouple Type |
| Thermocouple type. Selects which type of thermocouple the IC works with. | |
|
|
Filter Coefficients |
| Digitial filter selection. The higher the number the better the filter. Results more stable but take longer to update. | |
|
|
Unit |
| Select Temperature results to be celsius or fahrenheit | |
|
Address |
| Address ranges 0x60 - 0x67 (96 - 103) | |
|
|
Channel |
| Channel selection | |
|
SDA |
| Pin used for SDA (data signal) | |
|
|
SCL |
| Pin used for SCL (clock signal) | |
|
Console Data |
| Selects if the console data is automatically generated or not | |
|
|
Scope Traces |
| Selects if the scope traces are automatically generated or not | |
