Easy to use with WeMos D1 Mini (ESP8266)

Worked great just had to define the digital pins to account for spi. So far dht22 looks like garbage as my Arduino wasn't stuck with a read every second - combine this with a red node and it's just a solid hand down setup will buy again. I will use this probe to control the installation of a boiler for a wood burning stove.

Pros
  • Integrated cold junction compensation.
Cons
  • disappears

This method was accessible through the three I/O pins and easily.

I bought this item to experiment with a future product using an ATtiny microcontroller and a MAX6675 sensor. The MCU will not have a hardware SPI interface, so I access this part via digital I/O pins and software SPI - see the MAX6675 datasheet for signal details. This method was easily accessible via three I/O pins and works over a very wide range of clock speeds (important as this will be a low power design). I've only tested this part at room and body temperature so I can't comment on how it

Pros
  • Module interface: GND VCC SCK CS SO.
Cons
  • Big and Bulky

I ordered one of these. The first shows about 45 degrees higher than it should, so I asked for a replacement. The second doesn't work at all. I'm two and don't have a working sensor yet. If anyone decides to buy one of these, note that it comes with no documentation. Documentation is hard to find online, but I was able to find the Adafruit project on Github: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-MAX31855-libraryEDIT - DO NOT USE THIS LIBRARY - SEE. UPDATE BELOW. You can start by connecting the…

Pros
  • High impedance differential inputs.
Cons
  • Long delivery time
