Introduction: Temperature Sensor(LM35) With LCD(JHD162A)
Hey guys!
moxigen here. Since the summer's out here it's been scorching hot and has made me wonder what would be the temperature. Hence, I decided to put together some stuff to create a temperature sensor.
Step 1: Materials Required
You would require the following parts:
1. A 16x2 LCD screen(JHD162A used in my case.
2. A 10k potentiometer.
3. LM35 temperature sensor
4. jumper wires
5.A breadboard
6. A Arduino Prototype( Arduino Mega 2560 used in my case)
Step 2: Wire It Up
Connect the LCD and LM35 as shown.
Step 3: Uploading the Code Via USB
#include
float temp;
int tempPin = 0;
LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
lcd.begin(16, 2);
}
void loop()
{
temp = analogRead(tempPin);
temp = temp * 0.48828125;
Serial.print("TEMPRATURE = ");
Serial.print(temp);
Serial.print("*C");
Serial.println();
lcd.setCursor(0,0);
lcd.print("Temperature:");
lcd.setCursor(0,1);
lcd.print(temp);
lcd.print("*c");
delay(1000);
}
