  • Calibration of TMP36 sensors on Arduino?

    So I had a chance to try this out: I put 3x TMP36 sensors side by side on a breadboard, hooked it up to use the 3.3v reference for better accuracy, set up the code to discard the first reading (to settle the ADC) and then take the average of 8 analogRead…
  • Analog inputs (TMP36) and cable length questions

    Hi all, I'm trying to do some data logging on my greenhouse, but I'm getting some inconsistent values from my analog pins. Specifically, I have 6 sensors, using all of the UNO's analog pins A0-A5. I have 2x TMP36 temperature sensors (inside and outside…
  • AirMobile - 6 - Temperature sensor

    Temperature sensor TMP36 Today I connected the temperature sensor Analog Devices TMP36 to the MSP430 Launchpad. I chose his sensor for my project because it is widely used, cheap and very easy to use Hardware considerations TMP36 has only three connections…
  • Learning things the hard way

    Ok, So yesterday I was working on making an indoor/outdoor thermometer with my Arduino. I was using a TMP36 sensor in a breadboard for the indoor and an epoxy coated 10k precision thermistor for the outdoor. I was using the demo code on the Adafruit tutorial…
  • FRDM-KL25z and TMP36 sensor

    I've been working on a data logging system for my greenhouse - basically just a way of tracking soil moisture, sunlight, rain barrel water level, and of course temperature inside and outside of the greenhouse. I built most of it for Arduino, as I have…
  • Simple thermometer using Arduino Micro and OLED display

    A colleague recently made an Arduino-based thermometer to measure how hot it gets in the office. I thought I'd recreate and document the project with the components I have at hand Circuit The circuit is based around the TMP36 temperature sensor. It's…
