Hold those temperature sensors :) A new Maxim brochure just across my desk lists a new temperature sensor from Dallas/Maxim, the DS18B20 +/-0.5C accurate over -10 to +85 range (also available as +/-2C as a DS1822) with user configurable from 9 to 12 bits resolution. Uses the 1-wire bus system. Other interesting devices are the MAX6674/5 which is a direct thermocouple to digital converter in 8 pin SO package, integrated cold junction compensation, 10/12 bit word, and SPI interface. MAX6682/6691 thermistor to digital which minimises the thermistor dissipation by only having current through it when needing to do the measurement. 10 bit, SPI interface, 6682 handles single thermistor, 6691 handles 4 thermistors. Various other as well, including an LM75 replacement (DS1775) in a 5 pin SOT23 package. -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
