The Single Thermocouple Interface has been updated to V1.2.  There was not many major changes, mostly just minor modifications to the layout and solder mask.  These boards are available for sale assembled and as PCB only.

On to the new products.  First the Multi Interface!  The Multi Interface was designed because of a few requests for boards that supported more than 4 thermocouples.  This board can be populated with up to 28 MAX6675 and thermocouple connectors.  It will be available for sale later this week and can be configured with any number of thermocouple in increments of four.  Currently the PCB only is for sale.

The next new product is the Arduino Shield version of the Quad Thermocouple interface.  This is the standard thermocouple interface with the MAX6675 breakout, but configured as an Arduino shield.  It will be available later this week configured with 1, 2, or 4 thermocouple/MAX6675 chips.  ”Long” pin header will be available to make the shield stacking, or standard pin headers.

Sorry for any inconvenience, please contact me if you have any questions.

The forums are a great place to share ideas as well as some community support for the products. Let me know what you think or if you have problems.

I will be adding a more detailed projects section, which will make information much easier to find as well as forums! The shop will become a bit easier to navigate as well. Please give me your feedback, I should be done the transition in a few days.

New Stuff:

• Arduino Nano
• Nano Thermocouple Interface V1.0
• Single Thermocouple Interface V1.1
• Quad Thermocouple Interface V1.2
• Male 1×6 0.1″ Header
• Female 1×6 0.1″ Header
• Female 1×15 0.1″ Header

I have also dropped the prices on the previous version of the Single and Quad Thermocouple Interface PCB‘s.  Only $1!  Get them while they last.

Check back next week for many new products and some holiday deals!

PS – The “NewCustomer” promo is still good through the end of the month for 10% off your entire order!

I will have an information and support forum up and running soon so stay tuned!  I will also be carrying some Arduino boards soon!

You save $0.15 (6%)!

These are the male connectors that mate to the female PCB mount connectors on the MAX6675 breakout boards.  This is the easiest way to hook a thermocouple you may already have to the breakout boards.

Thermocouple Type:

K-Type

Material:

Glass-filled Nylon

Temperature Range:

Rated to 220°C (425°F)

• Shop

K-Type Thermocouple 6" probe / 60" length

$29.50

Now you have a MAX6675, but don’t have a temp probe?  Pick up one of these.  This is a low cost, however very accurate K-type thermocouple probe.  The probe is made of stainless steel and is 6″ long 1/8″ diameter, there is also a 60″ wire length of fiberglass wrapped wire rated to 900˚F.  The mini thermocouple connector will plug right into the interface boards.

Other sizes and configurations are available, please ask me!  If you feel there is something you want me to stock, just let me know.

Probe Size:

6″ Length 1/8″ Diameter

Probe Material:

Stainless Steel

Wire:

Fiberglass Insulated 36″ Length

Termination:

Mini K-type thermocouple connector

I fixed a small bug with the Single_Temp example as well as added the code to SVN.  Please let me know of any issues or if you have any ideas to add to the code.
