MAX667ESA+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum temperature range of the MAX6675ESA+?
  The MAX6675ESA+ can measure temperatures from -200°C to +1024°C (K-type thermocouple) or -200°C to +1372°C (J-type thermocouple).
• How accurate is the MAX6675ESA+?
  The MAX6675ESA+ has an accuracy of ±2°C (K-type) or ±3°C (J-type) over the operating temperature range.
• What is the cold junction compensation (CJC) temperature range of the MAX6675ESA+?
  The CJC temperature range is 0°C to 50°C, which is the temperature range of the internal thermistor that measures the cold junction temperature.
• How do I connect the thermocouple to the MAX6675ESA+?
  Connect the thermocouple to the T+ and T- pins of the MAX6675ESA+, making sure to observe the correct polarity (T+ to T+ and T- to T-).
• What is the output format of the MAX6675ESA+?
  The MAX6675ESA+ outputs a 12-bit digital signal representing the measured temperature, with a resolution of 0.25°C (K-type) or 0.5°C (J-type).
