You also must take into account the wiring. The wires go to the sensor, up to the die itself, and are made of good heat conducting material. Use as narrow wire as possible, and stuff a reasonable amount of the wire under the insulation. I mean the wire not just comes in a plain line, but is wrapped

I have exactly the same setup in some places - a DS18S20 on a copper tube, wrapped with tape and under insulation. When mounting temperature sensors it's usual to put down a little blob of conductive paste: http://www.resol.de/index/produktdetail/kategorie/7/id/50/sprache/en between the sensor

I am mesuring on a copper tube (sensor attached with tie wraps so the flat side makes a good connection). The temps i am measuring are between 12 and 22 °C. The tube and the sensor are insulted with tube insulation (its on my heat pump). (ambient temp is 25°C) The 2 sensors are +-10cm apart so they

At low temperatures, parasite power will make the sensor warm itself up a significant amount. There is no way this could be calibrated by the factory as the resulting t

every sensor must be calibrated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration in other words, get a sensor as "default", and make every others sensors have same value for the same temperature (normally a 0 Celsius ice bath) some ds18x20 have calibration inside rom, other must be done via external prog

I have several DS18x20 sensors in my network, some DS18S20 (the first 12) and some DS18B20 (some more added later). Since i was unsure about some reading of some DS18S20 sensors i used a second DS18B20 on the same spot... That reading was about 2°C higher than the DS18S20... i moved it about and i
