Hi Nick, I think if you refer to the app. notes in the data sheet, it will give you a suggested circuit to use the device in it's proper operating mode; this may be the problem. I am using the LM34 (Farenheit sensor) and it works quite well. Hope that helps. - Wade ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nick Veys" To: Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2001 7:40 PM Subject: [EE]: LM35 Woes > Greetings :) I'm having trouble with some LM35 Centigrade temperature > sensors...
