Pseudocode
Here is the pseudocode to understand the working of the sensor
Define some constants like temp and the pin that will be used for setting temperature. Set up the environment in the setup() function at serial 9600. Use the analogRead() function to read the input temperature from the sensor. Convert the input value to the Celsius scale using the formula shown above. Display the temperature at the output port using the print function and halt the program for a certain duration using the halt() function.
Arduino – Temperature Sensor
Sensors are widely used for sensing different quantities and quantifying them. One such example of a sensor is the temperature sensor which uses Arduino for displaying this temperature. The main feature of this sensor is that it can display the detected temperature on a Celsius scale.
In this article, we will study how to design this Temperature Sensor using the Arduino board and programming software. We will study the specifications needed for this sensor, and the methods and circuit diagrams used for designing this sensor. In addition to this, we will see the Arduino code written on IDE that will result in a sensor.
