Thermo K Click Board™

Product Code: MIKROE-2501

Temperature Range With the Type-K Probe, available in our store, this click can measure temperature up to +480 °C. With a different probe it can theoretically measure temperature up to +1372 °C. The Thermo K Click Board™ has a PCC-SMP thermocouple connector onboard, suitable for all K-type probes. Microchip MCP9600 The MCP9600 IC converts thermocouple EMF to degree Celsius with integrated Cold-Junction compensation. It corrects the thermocouple nonlinear error characteristics of eight thermocouple types and outputs ±1.5°C accurate temperature data. 4 Alert Outputs The Thermo K Click Board™ has 4 alert outputs onboard that can be used to detect multiple temperature zones. You can define on which specific temperature the THERMO K click will send an alarm. Low Power Modes Low-Power modes are available for battery-powered applications. In shut-down mode the module uses only 2 µA. THERMOCOUPLE PROBE To use the Thermo K Click Board™ you need to connect the appropriate K-type thermocouple probe (not included in the package) into the PCC-SMP connector.

Note: We offer the Thermocouple Type-K Glass Braid Insulated probes. APPLICATION Hand-held measurement equipment, industrial equipment thermal management, petrochemical thermal management, etc. SPECIFICATIONS Type Temperature & humidity Applications Hand-held measurement equipment, industrial equipment thermal management, petrochemical thermal management, etc. On-board modules MCP9600 IC from Microchip Key Features Operating Current: 300 µA, Shutdown Current: 2 µA Interface GPIO,I2C Compatibility mikroBUS Click board size M (42.9 x 25.4 mm) Input Voltage 3.3V or 5V The Thermo K Click Board™ carries the MCP9600 IC from Microchip and and depending on the type of probe it uses, the click can measure temperatures from −200 °C to +1372 °C. The Thermo K Click Board™ is designed to run either on 3.3V or 5V power supply. It communicates with the target MCU through I2C interface.
