The main purpose of this paper is to show how to build a simple temperature monitoring system by using multiple TMP75 digital sensors with 2-wire (I 2 C-compatible) serial interface and the PC's parallel port. The proposed system has a master-slave architecture and consists of an LPT-to-I 2 C adapter for the parallel port, which operates as single master, up to 8 slave modules (measurements nodes) based on the TMP75 digital sensor IC and LabVIEW application software. Such a system can be deployed across a building, laboratory or any other facility, for current environmental monitoring, or it may serve as an educational tool for students.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
