I am almost surprised that there isn't already an SPI bit-banging comp
for EMC2. As long as the components are flexible in their timing then
shifting one bit per base thread ought to be pretty easy.
I did some
Jonathan,
I'm so new at this kind of stuff you might have to beat me over the head
till I understand :)
Ok the Arduino Uno and a couple of Max6675's . Would I need a mini
breadboard and some jumpers to test out with? Hmm, and some kind of
board for the Max6675's

Once again, the arduino can be used to interface with several spi devices (I
usually just use software bit banging for something low speed like this). It
can also be used for your digital IO needs. It is also very easy to
interface with the arduino because they have a USB to serial chip. Like
this:
I think I found something on sparkfun that fits the bill sorta

Do you guys think this could be hacked to have two Max6675's going to
the FT23R?
Thanks

I'm still trying to digest all the ideas and yes a USB interface would
be the best. I'm not sure if this may be part of the puzzle or not.

It does seem to me that a thermocouple amplifier chip would be needed
like the AD594 or the thermocouple to digital con
Wow. That SPI interface is a lot simpler than I thought it would be.
Nice!
But this doesn't address the issue of using a laptop that does not have
a LPT port.
Still it is a slick solution.
Thanks for sharing that.
I would think that JT would want to use a newer laptop for this app -

Michael,
Thanks I think that is what I was looking for. I actually have some
one-wire stuff but it was too old and not the right shape.

Better yet, just the the relay ladder logic in EMC2 to do the sequencing.
