MAX31855JASA+ datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

MAX31855JASA+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum temperature range that the MAX31855JASA+ can measure?
  The MAX31855JASA+ can measure temperatures from -200°C to 1350°C, with an accuracy of ±2°C from -20°C to 420°C.
• How does the MAX31855JASA+ handle cold junction compensation?
  The MAX31855JASA+ has an internal cold junction compensation (CJC) circuit that measures the temperature of the IC itself, allowing for accurate temperature measurements.
• What is the conversion time for a single temperature measurement?
  The conversion time for a single temperature measurement is approximately 10ms, but this can be adjusted through the configuration registers.
• Can the MAX31855JASA+ be used with other types of thermocouples besides K-type?
  Yes, the MAX31855JASA+ can be used with other types of thermocouples, such as J-type, T-type, and N-type, but the accuracy may vary depending on the thermocouple type and range.
• How does the MAX31855JASA+ handle noise and interference?
  The MAX31855JASA+ has built-in noise filtering and error detection mechanisms to minimize the effects of noise and interference on temperature measurements.
