Adafruit MCP9600 I2C Thermocouple Amplifier

Description

Thermocouples are very sensitive, requiring a good amplifier with a cold-compensation reference. The Adafruit MCP9600 does all that for you, and can be easily interfaced with any microcontroller or single-board-computer with I2C. Inside, the chip handles all the analog stuff for you, and can interface with just about any thermocouple type: K, J, T, N, S, E, B and R type are all supported! You can also set various alerts for over/under temperature, and read the thermocouple (hot) temperature and the chip (cold) temperature. All this over common I2C

This breakout board has the chip itself, a 3.3V regulator and level shifting circuitry, all assembled and tested. Works great with 3.3V or 5V logic. Comes with a 2 pin terminal block (for connecting to the thermocouple) and pin header (to plug into any breadboard or perfboard). Match it up with our 1m K-type thermocouple.

• Works with any K, J, T, N, S, E, B and R type thermocouple
• Datasheet rated for:
  K Type: -200^oC to +1372^oC
  J Type: -150^oC to +1200^oC
  T Type: -200^oC to +400^oC
  N Type: -150^oC to +1300^oC
  E Type: -200^oC to +1000^oC
  S Type: +250^oC to +1664^oC
  B Type: +1000^oC to +1800^oC
  R Type: +250^oC to +1664^oC
• Resolution of ±0.0625^oC - note that K thermocouples have about ±2^oC to ±6^oC accuracy
• Internal temperature reading
• 3.3 to 5v power supply and logic level compliant
• I2C data connection

Revision History: As of October 10, 2019 we're shipping MCP9600's with datecodes after 1845 so that they are not affected by the repeated-data bug mentioned in the eratta.
