MCP9700DM-PCTL

The MCP9700DM-PCTL is a MCP9700 temperature to voltage converter PICtail demo board, demonstrates how to interface the MCP9700 to a PICmicro microcontroller using the PICkit 1 flash starter kit as a platform. A PIC16F676 14 pin, flash based, 8bit CMOS microcontroller device is included with the demo board that can be used with the PICkit 1 flash starter kit, along with firmware that provides the interface to the MCP9700 temperature to voltage converter PICtail demo board and the voltage to temperature conversion routines. The MCP9700 temperature to voltage converter PICtail demo board can also be used as a stand alone module to quickly add thermal sensing capablity to any existing application. The PIC16F676 is reading the temperature data from the MCP9700 and displaying the temperature on the eight red LEDs on the PICkit 1 flash starter kit board. The temperature can be displayed in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit. The board defaults to the temperature being displayed in Celsius.

• Firmware that uses PIC16F676 to measure and display temperature in degree Fahrenheit or Celsius
• Small PCB layout
• Standard 100mil 14 pin header for easy interface to PICkit 1 flash starter kit or custom application
