What temperature should a refrigerator be?
The FDA recommends between 32°F and 40°F (0°C to 4°C).
Energy Star recommends between 35°F and 38°F (2°C to 3°C) to reduce energy use.
thermister =
- 10K Ohm @ 25 celcius
- 20.13 @ 5
- 24.30 @ 0
voltage devider
Vout = (R2/(R1+R2)) x Vin
- 24.3 Ohm -> 0.962V
- 24 Ohm -> 0.97V
- 21 Ohm -> 1.06V
Analog to Digital Converter
Arduino's onboard ADC converts voltage to a range of 0-1023 based on arduino's base voltage
so on a 3.3V arduino, analogRead(A1) will equal
- 0V = 0 reading
- 1.65 = 511
- 3.3V = 1023
so
- 24.3 Ohm = 298.25 = 0 C
- 24 Ohm = 300.88
- 21 Ohm = 329.99
