????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? maxim integrated products 8 max31855 cold-junction compensated thermocouple-to-digital converter table 1. thermocouple wire connections and nominal sensitivities detailed description the max31855 is a sophisticated thermocouple-to- digital converter with a built-in 14-bit analog-to-digital converter (adc). the device also contains cold-junction compensation sensing and correction, a digital control - ler, an spi-compatible interface, and associated control logic. the device is designed to work in conjunction with an external microcontroller ( f c) in thermostatic, process-control, or monitoring applications. the device is available in several versions, each optimized and trimmed for a specific thermocouple type (k, j, n, t, s, r, or e.). the thermocouple type is indicated in the suffix of the part number (e.g., max31855k). see the ordering information table for all options. temperature conversion the device includes signal-conditioning hardware to convert the thermocouples signal into a voltage com - patible with the input channels of the adc. the t+ and t- inputs connect to internal circuitry that reduces the introduction of noise errors from the thermocouple wires. before converting the thermoelectric voltages into equiv - alent temperature values, it is necessary to compensate for the difference between the thermocouple cold- junction side (device ambient temperature) and a 0 n c virtual reference. for a k-type thermocouple, the volt - age changes by about 41 f v/ n c, which approximates the thermocouple characteristic with the following linear equation: v out = (41.276 f v/ n c) x (t r - t amb ) where v out is the thermocouple output voltage ( f v), t r is the temperature of the remote thermocouple junction ( n c), and t amb is the temperature of the device ( n c). other thermocouple types use a similar straight-line approximation but with different gain terms. note that the max31855 assumes a linear relationship between tem - perature and voltage. because all thermocouples exhibit some level of nonlinearity, apply appropriate correction to the devices output data. cold-junction compensation the function of the thermocouple is to sense a difference in temperature between two ends of the thermocouple wires. the thermocouples hot junction can be read across the operating temperature range ( table 1 ). the reference junction, or cold end (which should be at type t- wire t+ wire temp range ( c) sensitivity (v/ c) cold-junction sensitivity (v/ c) (0 n c to +70 n c) k alumel chromel -270 to +1372 41.276 (0 n c to +1000 n c) 40.73 j constantan iron -210 to +1200 57.953 (0 n c to +750 n c) 52.136 n nisil nicrosil -270 to + 1300 36.256 (0 n c to +1000 n c) 27.171 s platinum platinum/rhodium +50 to +1768 9.587 (0 n c to +1000 n c) 6.181 t constantan copper -270 to +400 52.18 (0 n c to +400 n c) 41.56 e constantan chromel -270 to +1000 76.373 (0 n c to +1000 n c) 44.123 r platinum platinum/rhodium -50 to +1768 10.506 (0 n c to +1000 n c) 6.158

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? maxim integrated products 11 max31855 cold-junction compensated thermocouple-to-digital converter applications information noise considerations because of the small signal levels involved, thermocou - ple temperature measurement is susceptible to power- supply coupled noise. the effects of power-supply noise can be minimized by placing a 0.1 f f ceramic bypass capacitor close to the v cc pin of the device and to gnd. the input amplifier is a low-noise amplifier designed to enable high-precision input sensing. keep the thermo - couple and connecting wires away from electrical noise sources. it is strongly recommended to add a 10nf ceramic surface-mount differential capacitor, placed across the t+ and t- pins, in order to filter noise on the thermocouple lines. thermal considerations self-heating degrades the devices temperature measure - ment accuracy in some applications. the magnitude of the temperature errors depends on the thermal conductivity of the device package, the mounting technique, and the effects of airflow. use a large ground plane to improve the devices temperature measurement accuracy. the thermocouple systems accuracy can also be improved by following these precautions: ? use the largest wire possible that does not shunt heat away from the measurement area. ? if a small wire is required, use it only in the region of the measurement, and use extension wire for the region with no temperature gradient. ? avoid mechanical stress and vibration, which could strain the wires. ? when using long thermocouple wires, use a twisted pair extension wire. ? avoid steep temperature gradients. ? try to use the thermocouple wire well within its tem - perature rating. ? use the proper sheathing material in hostile environ - ments to protect the thermocouple wire. ? use extension wire only at low temperatures and only in regions of small gradients. ? keep an event log and a continuous record of thermo - couple resistance.
