After soldering the three pins to a cable with two wires and a metallic
shield, we put the component into the tube filled with slowly curing
epoxy resin, the excess resin flows out of the tube, and the remaining
resin becomes hard 12 hours later.


Dear Georges,
This is much easier than PT100. Output can be connected to IN1
that can measure with 12 bit resolution, 1.2 mV steps.

with regards

Ajith





According to http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/lm35.pdf,
- you can use 4 to 30 V to feed the LM35 sensor
- it drains very few current; so voltage from OD1 is OK.
- the sensitivity is 10 mV by degree. As the accuracy of expeyes DC
inputs is 5 mV when you use a conversion with 10 bits, you can know
the temperature with an accuracy of 0,5° C without amplifying.
- the linearity is very good for such a cheap component (+-0.15°C, 3 €
in small quantity at my local store)
- with no external component, you can measure temperatures in the range
2°C to 150°C (schematics are on page 1)

Best regards, Georges.
