Check out the temperature control code in Lady Heather. It uses a nice PID controller algorithm (from Warren Sarkison) to PWM modulate a fan to stabilize the environment around the Tbolt. It can achieve millidegree range stability... I have seen long term RMS values of the temperature plot less than a few micro-degrees. The standard Tbolt oscillator has a rather horrible tempco...
I'll post some recommendations/findings about various environmental sensors I tried while I was building my weather/envionmental sensor package. Hint: the MS5611 pressure sensor chip is very nice. Has 24 bit ADCs for the pressure and temperature readings and produces very stable readings with a 100 Hz update rate. ---------- However it is disappointing that no one has stepped up to tackle the temperature problem. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
