Ks0123 keyestudio EASY plug LM35 Temperature Sensor Module

Keyestudio EASY plug LM35 Temperature Sensor

Introduction

It is based on semiconductor LM35 temperature sensor.
A temperature sensor is exactly what it sounds like - a sensor used to measure ambient temperature.
It is effective in the range between 0 degree Celsius and 100 degree Celsius. Sensitivity is 10mV per degree Celsius.
The output voltage is proportional to the temperature.
This module should be used together with EASY plug control board.

Special Note:
The sensor/module is equipped with the RJ11 6P6C interface, compatible with our keyestudio EASY plug Control Board with RJ11 6P6C interface.
If you have the control board of other brands, it is also equipped with the RJ11 6P6C interface but has different internal line sequence, can’t be used compatibly with our sensor/module.

Features

Connector: Easy plug

Connect It Up

Connect the EASY Plug LM35 temperature sensor to control board using an RJ11 cable. Then connect the control board to your PC with a USB cable.

Upload the Code

Below is an example code. Open or drag below code to Mixly Blocks and upload.

What You Should See

Done uploading the code, open the serial monitor and set the baud rate to 9600, you should see the analog temperature value.

Extension Experiment 1

Temperature Controlled Light

Complete the above experiment, you can get the analog temp. value. Want to try some different experiments.
For instance, when the temperature reaches the setting value, turn on an LED. Let’s get started right now!

Hookup Guide
Connect the EASY Plug LM35 sensor and LED module to control board using RJ11 cables.

Example Code
Below is an example code. Open or drag below code to Mixly Blocks and upload.

What You Should See
Done uploading the code, when the temperature detected by LM35 sensor is greater than 19℃, external LED will be turned on.

Little Knowledge:
As we all known, different regions might exists different climate. So if the setting temp. value is too low or too high, cannot turn on the LED, you can change the value in the code shown below.
