ADC0804LCN Thermistor example Analog to digital converter tutorial

A tutorial on how to convert to 8 bit digital the analog readings from a temperature dependent resistor. The 8 bit digital signal can then be processed by a microcontroller.


1. Take the binary value measured by the analog to digital converter at room temperature.

2. Convert that binary value to decimal and place it in the equation.

3. Touch the sensor to chage the temperature, change the new binary value to decimal and place it in the equation to obtain the new temperature.
