Is it getting hot in here? well with this little temperature sensor board for your micro:bit you’ll be able to tell.
Breaking out the trusty TMP36 to 3 hoops for easy crocodile clip connection for your micro:bit and available as a kit (requiring 3 pins to be soldered), you should be taking readings in no time.
We’ve even created these blog posts showing example code and the formula required to change the millivolt reading to a usable temperature.
Please note this version of the board has a silk screen error on the rear and states the formula for a 5V device is mV = (input) * (3300/1024) this should read mV = (input) * (5000/1024) and as such are being sold off cheap.
Included:
- 1 x Temp:bit breakout board
- 1 x TMP36 Temperature sensor
