From Microchip Technology, Inc.
Analog output silicon temperature sensors offer an easy-to-use alternative to traditional temperature sensors, such as thermistors. The TC1047A offers many system-level advantages, including the integration of the temperature sensor and signal conditioning circuitry on a single chip. Analog output sensors are especially suited for embedded systems due to their linear output. This application note will discuss system integration, firmware implementation and PCB layout techniques for using the TC1047A in an embedded system.
The firmware required to interface the TC1047A to a microcontroller will be demonstrated using the PICkit™ 1 FLASH Starter Kit. The PICkit 1 FLASH Starter Kit is a low-cost development kit with an easy-to-use interface for programming Microchip's 8-pin and 14-pin FLASH family of microcontrollers.
