TMP36 Sample Code

The document provides sample code to read temperature data from a TMP36 temperature sensor using an Arduino. The code uses analogRead to get a reading from the sensor pin, converts it to voltage, then calculates the temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit by applying conversion formulas.

Sample Code using TMP36

float temp;
int tempPin = 0;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop()
{
int reading = analogRead(tempPin);
// converting that reading to voltage,
float voltage = reading * 5.0;
voltage /= 1024.0;
// print out the voltage
Serial.print(voltage);
Serial.print(" volts");

// now print out the temperature


float temperatureC = (voltage - 0.5) * 100 ; //converting from 10 mv per degree wit 500 mV offset
//to degrees ((voltage - 500mV) times 100)
Serial.print(“\t”);
Serial.print(temperatureC);
Serial.print(" degrees C");

// now convert to Fahrenheit


float temperatureF = (temperatureC * 9.0 / 5.0) + 32.0;
Serial.print( temperatureF);
Serial.println(" degrees F");
delay(1000); //waiting a second
}
