TIDA-00468

Optimized Latency, Power and Memory Footprint Thermocouple Sensing Front-end Reference Design

TIDA-00468

Design files

Overview

The TIDA-00468 Reference design shows how to build an isolated thermocouple sensing front-end with optimized power-consumption for loop powered application while:
• reducing footprint from classical look-up table approach and
• keeping the fast response time of linear piece wise interpolation

Features
  • Sensor Input: K-Type Thermocouple
  • Temperature range:-270..1372 C
  • System accuracy: +/- 0.2K
  • Piecewise linear interpolation
  • Look-up table size: 320 bytes
