HCS12 and Sensor - Ramsin Savra - Nov 16 14:08:00 2005
Hello group,
Can somebody tell me what sensor I should use to capture temperature of a refrigerator?
this is my firs project and I don't know how to select a sensor.
Your help will be appreciated greatly.
Thanks.

Try Microchip. I played with a TC1047A and an HC08 processor with success.
Just use the processor's analog to digital converter to measure the output
voltage and calculate the temp based on the datasheet's temp vs. voltage
curve. http://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/21498c.pdf

What accuracy and resolution do you expect ?

Hello Ramsin,
I just repared a refrigerator with a DS18B20 from MAXIM (see maxim-ic.com). It
guarantees +/- 0.3 centigrad and is controlled by a
"1-Wire-Interface". Gives you the temperature digitally.
I used it with a HC11 at port D (1 pin needed, must be
open-collector). They use a special protocoll but have good examples
how to implement it.

Re: HCS12 and Sensor - ramsinsavra - Nov 17 6:09:00 2005
Nice! thanks indeed for your suggestion. Also, I have one more
question. What about UPS level?
I need to check a UPS level connected to the refrigerator and I was
told that I should use a special resistance in order to decrease the
votage. How do I know which voltage is the appropriate one?
I'm totally new to this exciting field.
Thanks again.

Re: HCS12 and Sensor - ramsinsavra - Dec 4 16:02:00 2005
Hello Werner,
I got the sensor finally. In your email you had mentioned that there
are good examples of it. Can you send me a reference?
Also, does it matter (in terms of performance) if I connect a Vdd to
the power pin, instead of connecting it to GND?
Thanks in advance.
