So far we've carried the very nice MAX31855 which is an SPI interface thermocouple amplifier. The '855 is great but if you have a lot of thermocouples to measure it isn't terribly easy to use. That's why we are also carrying the new '850 model from Maxim - it's a \"1-Wire\" thermocouple amp which can have any number of breakouts on a single shared I\/O line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MAX31850K does everything for you and can be easily interfaced with any microcontroller that has 1-wire support. This breakout board has the chip itself, a 3.3V regulator with 10uF bypass capacitors all assembled and tested. This board can be used with 'parasitic power' - where the power is on the data line - or with 'local power' where the power for the converter comes in on the Vin Pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note: this board does not have level shifting on the 3V Data line\u003c\/strong\u003e - we did this on purpose so that it can be used in parasitic mode. The data line must be level shifted to 3V - our 4-channel shifter works wonderfully for level shifting 1-Wire and you only need one at the '1-Wire host' for all thermocouples on the shared data line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MAX31850K data format is very similar to that of the well-known 1-Wire DS18B20 temp sensor, but it is not drop-in compatible without code changes to check for the new '1 Wire family' type. We have adapted the classic Arduino OneWire and DallasTemp libraries to be MAX31850 compatible, so please click on those links to grab our libraries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes with a pre-soldered 2-pin terminal block (for connecting to the thermocouple), a 4.7K data line pullup resistor, and a pin header (to plug into any breadboard or perf board).

It uses a UV photodiode, which can detect the 240-370nm range of light (which covers UVB and most of the UVA spectrum).

This makes it better for simple projects. It also has a 'true' UV sensor instead of a calibrated light sensor. To use, power the sensor and op-amp by connecting V+ to 2.7-5.5VDC and GND to power the ground. Then read the analogue signal from the OUT pin. The output voltage is Vo = 4.3 * Diode-Current-in-uA. So if the photocurrent is 1uA (9 mW\/cm^2), the output voltage is 4.3V. You can also convert the voltage to UV Index by dividing the output voltage by 0.1V.

Just like 'classic' electret microphones, MEMS mics can detect sound and convert it to voltage, but they're way smaller and thinner. This microphone doesn't even have analog out, its purely digital.

But as you get to bigger and better microcontrollers and microcomputers, you'll find that you don't always have an analog input, or maybe you want to avoid the noise that can seep in with an analog mic system.

No analog conversion required!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe microphone is a single mono element. You can select whether you want it to be on the Left or Right channel by connecting the Select pin to power or ground. If you need stereo, pick up two microphones!
