Beginners • Re: Need help with temperature sensor and display project

You didn’t specify which programming language you are using.
- I have not yet decided. Was thinking about C/C++, since I rarely get to use them and wanted to give it a try. Any suggestions are welcome!

Couldn’t see any documentation about the output from that temperature sensor!
- I am a total beginner when it comes to microcontrollers, no idea what to look for but one of the comments said the sensor element is Pt1000
Looks as if there is a PT1000 build into this sensor.

Look for a board like this to connect the sensor: https://www.adafruit.com/product/3648

You could also build a voltage divider with a 2k to 10k resistor and use pico ADC to measure voltage on junction and calculate pt1000 resistance. And from this calculate the temperature. But this approach is less accurate than using a dedicated board.
Thank you!
