Probably two magnets a bridge type Hall sensor and one or two A/D
channels. And a thermistor. You are trying to resolve ~0.3 degrees. That
would require an optical encoder with multiplying gear (expen$ive) or a
very expen$ive linear pot. The Hall sensor solution will likely be cheaper
than both. You can also use a rotating vane capacitive sensor.
