MAX6675 Description

The MAX6675 performs cold-junction compensation and digitizes the signal from a type-K thermocouple. The data is output in a 12-bit resolution, SPI™-compatible, read-only format. This converter resolves temperatures to 0.25°C, allows readings as high as +1024°C, and exhibits thermocouple accuracy of 8LSBs for temperatures ranging from 0°C to +700°C.

The MAX6675 is a sophisticated thermocouple-to-digital converter with a built-in 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The MAX6675 also contains cold-junction compensation sensing and correction, a digital controller, an SPI-compatible interface, and associated control logic.

MAX6675 Features

● Direct Digital Conversion of Type -K Thermocouple Output

● Cold-Junction Compensation

● Simple SPI-Compatible Serial Interface

● 12-Bit, 0.25°C Resolution

● Open Thermocouple Detection

MAX6675 Typical Application Circuit

The Typical Application Circuit shows the MAX6675 interfaced with a microcontroller. In this example, the MAX6675 processes the reading from the thermocouple and transmits the data through a serial interface. Force CS low and apply a clock signal at SCK to read the results at SO. Forcing CS low immediately stops any conversion process. Initiate a new conversion process by forcing CS high.

Frequently Asked Questions

What difference is between MAX6675 and MAX31855?
The MAX6675 outputs 12 bits of data. The MAX31855 outputs 14 bits. That would indicate that the MAX31855 is more accurate. However, it has a wider range -250 to +1600 rather than 0 to 1024. So it has about 1 bit more resolution in practice. "1 bit" means it can see changes half the size of what the other can detect.
What is the max6675 designed to?
The MAX6675 is designed to work in conjunction with an external microcontroller (µC) or other intelligence in thermostatic, process-control, or monitoring applications.
How does the MAX6675 perform?
The MAX6675 performs cold-junction compensation and digitizes the signal from a type-K thermocouple. The data is output in a 12-bit resolution, SPI™-compatible, read-only format.
What package is the MAX6675 available in?
The MAX6675 is available in a small, 8-pin SO package.
