Temperature Sensor

Started by e_w_a_n August 31, 2003
Hi all.
I am newbie in 6811. I have a final project to do. And I want to
know how to integrate the temperature sensor to the M68HC11?
But firstly, I need to know the best sensor to use..
tq



You have two options: use a digital sensor, or an analog sensor.
The first option is easy in hardware, but hard in software. Normally it's used a DS1820; that's a sensor with an ADC and a serial interface, so you have to build a serial decoder by software. In the second option the best & cheaper solution it's to use a LM35 and connect it to the ADC port on 68HC11 (or other that has an analog input), but it can't be inaccurate if you don't calibrate it correctly.

============================================================
there are temp sensors that put out an analog voltage like an ad590 and
digital ones like ds1620... the analog one would run into an opamp to goose the
millivolts up a little then to the a/d input on the hc11. The ds1620 hooks to
the spi input. You writing this project in c I hope? What compiler?



thank you for replying.
I writing this project not in c but in the uC language itself.
if I decide to use the LM35 sensor, is there any supporting chip to
be used? or can I connect it to the 68HC11 direcly?
Thank you.

======================================
You mean you are writing in assembly language for the hc11. There are still
several 'flavors' of hc11 assembly language... there is a free assembler on the
motorla site and on the technologiocal arts site. Also, you can find out
everything you never wanted to know about the LM35 by reading the data sheet...
dont know where to find it? just type in lm35 on the google search bar. Get
started on your project and come back in a few hours and ask a specific question,
like 'I see the a/d converter will give me 255 values between 0 and 5v, how
can I print this out the serial port as farenheit or celcius or kelvin or
rankine?' or something like that


Attached file is the temperature sensor circuit , connect the output of op
amp to
a/d input of the 68HC11

If you use a thermistor, you do not need an op-amp. However,
because of the non-linearity of thermistors, you will need a
look-up table with an interpolation function.

5V0

|
10K Resistor
|
|-----> HC11 AtoD.n
|
Nominal 10K thermistor (Thermometrics, Fenwal, YSI..)
|
V
Gnd

This is fine for a range of around -40 to +110 C.
