Thanks.

I have some questions about the details of running the event: 1. When to record the device reading and thermometer reading? My plan is within the 2 minutes, students tell me that their reading is ready (stabilized), then I wait 15 seconds to record them, maybe a photo snapshot. Just try to avoid stu...

I played with TMP36 with Arduino Due for. a while. It outputs different voltages between USB power Arduino and 9V battery power Arduino. After all kinds of testing, we found power TMP36 from a separate power supply solved the problem. The root cause is still not clear, we may need to borrow a scope ...

No. It is already water-proof.

For regional, you can pre-calibrate your device before the event, because it will use your own thermometer to do the event. The 10 minutes setup, you can safely skip it or just verify one or two points. For state, The ES will give you a thermometer, you have to calibrate your device with that thermo...

That 8cm will make the tube style unpractical and make the box style very difficult.

I have posted a question to the FAQ to clarify for what it is worth.

Thanks for doing that.

Hope your question includes whether resistor and capacitor are allowed to add by students?

1. Calibration Curve fit: thermistor with full Steinhart–Hart equation, 4 points. TMP36/M35: also 4 points to the 3rd degree of polynomial. So in #1, you said "full Steinhart–Hart equation, 4 points ", does the 4 points mean, input 4 points instead of 3? Because in my findings, I have discovered th...

FAQ: (Section: 3 / Paragraph: b / Line: 1) 10/09/2019 ARE WE ALLOWED TO USE MORE THAN ONE TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND USE AN AVERAGE READING OF THEM, OR IS THERE A LIMIT OF ONLY ONE INPUT DEVICE? No, only one sensor per device is allowed. ============== I was thinking use different thermistors for readin...

This list is so quiet, so I am just going to post something. This year, I will coach 3 C teams (same school) for building events. Here are some my thoughts, any feedback are welcome. 1.
