Description

The Keyestudio Analog Temperature Sensor utilizes a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor as its sensing element. Changes in ambient temperature cause a predictable change in the thermistor’s resistance, which the module converts into a corresponding analog voltage signal. This signal is output via a standard 3-pin interface (VCC, GND, Signal) for direct connection to an Arduino’s analog input pin.

The module is designed for robust operation across a broad temperature spectrum, from -55°C to 315°C, making it suitable for both general-purpose and more demanding monitoring scenarios. Its simple analog output eliminates the need for complex communication protocols, allowing for rapid prototyping and integration into a wide array of microcontroller-based systems, including Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi (with an ADC).

Key Features

  • NTC Thermistor Core: Provides reliable and responsive temperature sensing based on resistance change.
  • 5V Logic Compatible: Operates at a standard 5V DC supply voltage, perfect for Arduino Uno and similar boards.
  • Analog Voltage Output: Delivers a simple 0-5V analog signal for direct microcontroller ADC input.
  • Wide Measurement Range: Capable of monitoring temperatures from -55°C to 315°C.
  • Compact PCB Design: Features a small footprint (40mm x 20mm) and light weight for versatile mounting.
  • Beginner-Friendly Interface: Utilizes a standard 3-pin header (VCC, GND, SIG) for straightforward wiring.
  • High-Value Build: Offers a cost-effective solution for integrating temperature sensing into prototypes and finished projects.

Applications

  • DIY Home Automation: Monitoring room temperature for smart thermostat or climate control systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage for this temperature sensor module?

This module is designed to operate at a standard 5V DC supply, which is compatible with most Arduino boards (Uno, Mega, etc.) and other 5V microcontroller systems. Ensure your power source provides a stable 5V supply for accurate analog readings.

How do I connect and read data from this analog sensor with an Arduino?

Connect the module's VCC pin to Arduino 5V, GND to GND, and the signal (SIG) pin to any analog input pin (e.g., A0). In your Arduino sketch, use the `analogRead()` function on the chosen pin. You will then need to map the raw ADC value (0-1023) to a temperature value in Celsius using a conversion formula or library specific to the NTC thermistor's characteristics.

What is the temperature measurement range of this sensor?

The sensor's NTC thermistor supports a wide operating temperature range from -55 degrees Celsius to 315 degrees Celsius. This makes it suitable for a variety of applications, from cold environment monitoring to high-temperature detection projects. Note that extreme temperatures near the limits may affect long-term sensor stability.

Does this module require calibration?

For most hobbyist applications, the sensor provides sufficiently accurate readings using standard NTC conversion formulas or libraries. For higher precision, a two-point calibration against a known temperature reference (like an ice bath and boiling water) can be performed to fine-tune the conversion constants in your code and account for minor component tolerances.
