Hi shabaz,

I found this post extremely useful and well written.

I am really interested on knowing more about the ADC part

(and also the shunt resistor) because I want to realize it for

a project that I am currently working on.

Thanks for your time.

hi shabaz

Do you need a meter display?We specialized in manufacturing LCD.It USES instruments, elevators, household appliances, etc

Here are some better thermal tests, benchmarks for those who are interested, (see also the comment link for installing them). Also, this is how I solved the overheating issue.

note- if you can't run cpuburn-a53 without throttling (temps exceed 79C), (and/or you are not using a proper power supply (5.1V 2.5A or 5.25V 2.4A)) then don't even try Linpack bench, as you are insufficiently cooled. Resolve the overheating/under voltage issue. In comment link, are the measurements for the heatsink and fan I used in the video.

Excellent detailed post.

It is always useful to see the basic device independently tested to see if the spec sheets are honest.

Thanks for interesting blog Shabaz.

I must take you to task over the egg frying [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-1c8adf18-8fed-48ce-b952-486ec962e1df/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

All over the internet you will see claims that approx 158F is hot enough but this is not the case, the egg will stiffen and the white (eventually) turn opaque at this temperature but frying requires temperatures above the boiling point of water. The first link gives a good idea of actual temperatures required of the hot plate:

The second link is a definition of pan frying:

note the comment re. the escaping steam.

E14 members should not buy a Raspberry Pi to fry eggs.
