Hello!
(english it’s not my mother language. Please forgive any posible syntax errors)
I don’t know why I’m getting wrong readings from the temperature sensor when I execute this circuit from the Arduino SIK. Maybe there is something wrong with the code, but after several tries I still can’t figure out.
Here is what happens:
-
The example temperature in the manual: for a reading of 0,73 voltage it states 22,75 ºC
-
The readings I’m getting: for a reading of 0,55 volt. it states 4,59 ºC
The average temperature that day in my city that day was 18 ºC, and the sensor keeps telling me in my room we are 4,59 ºC
The circuit was well setted (I triple checked).
I noticed that if I plugged the USB cable from the Arduinto to my computer with a hub it read less voltage than normal. If I plugged it directly to one of the USB ports of my computer the readings gets something more beliveable. But still the conversion form voltage to Celsius seems unreal.
Do you think It can be any mistake with the code?
Any ideas?
thanks a lot for the feedback. This is my first post in the forum. Normally I find my way around similar problems, though I’m learning from scratch, but I hitted a real wall with this one.
