I'm not really understanding your question about the TMP36, but you provide a voltage and ground to it, and the remaining pin outputs a voltage that is proportional to the measured temperature. Do the transmitter and receiver need to match each other or do they just need to be on the same operating band? So I will need a transmitter that operates at 915Mhz. I also don't know much about RF technology. Or does the transmitter do all the conversions and transmit the signal to the receiver and the receiver just displays the temperature. My question is, does this clock have the microcontroller built in on the receiver? Is the purpose of the transmitter to just find a number that changes as temperature changes and transmit this number and the receiver will decode it. My guess is you use a micro controller to do the conversion. I've worked with arduino, and I know that a temperature sensor like the TMP36 changes with temperature, but it does not provide the actual temperature.


Since I don't know much about temperature sensors I was wondering if I could get some questions answered and some direction. I'm a Computer Engineering student, so I have some electronics background.īasically my idea is to design the circuit, test it with a breadboard, then put the design out to a PCB.

I'm attempting to build a temperature sensor for the SkyScan Atomic Clock.
