In this tutorial you will learn how to use the TMP36 sensor with Arduino uno. The room temperature will be printed to serial monitor. The TMP36 is a low voltage, precision centigrade temperature sensor. It provides a voltage output that is linearly proportional to the Celsius temperature. It also doesn’t require any external calibration to provide typical accuracies of ±1°C at +25°C and ±2°C over the −40°C to +125°C temperature range. We like it because it’s so easy to use: Just give the device a ground and 2.7 to 5.5 VDC and read the voltage on the Vout pin. The output voltage can be converted to temperature easily using the scale factor of 10 mV/°C.
Wiring Instructions
To wire your TMP36 to your Arduino, connect the following pins:
- Connect the 5V pin to 5 Volts (5V)
- Connect the SIGNAL pin to analog pin 0
- Connect the GND pin to ground (GND)
