    Re: Turbonator auxiliary temp input

    I frequently use this type of circuit but if the load is inductive ie solenoid I add a flyback diode.

    Re: Turbonator auxiliary temp input

    So can you write down the needs and wants?
    For example,
    1)Arduino based powered by 12V ( Arduino board has a local 5V regulator to power the micro)
    2)Bluetooth to PC communications
    3)4 or 5 ADC inputs for sensors ( Which sensors would you like to monitor?)
    4)Voltage range of inputs
    5) # of bits for ADC (standard is 10bit(0-1023) on Atmel 328P)
    6) data collection rate to store on SD card.

    Any others?

    Possible sensors

    Wideband
    Narrowband
    EGT
    Oil Pressure
    MAP
    Knock

    Re: Turbonator auxiliary temp input

    Personally I would like to log EGT as Wheming mentioned. I use a K type thermocouple with the MCP3422/4 (18bit) with cold junction correction on my home made coffee roaster which runs to approx 500F. So this should be easy to port as I have the code written and proven with years of use.
