7-2-7 TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION & OVERCOOLING/UNDERCOOLING COMPENSATION CIRCUIT

1. Refrigerator Temperature Compensation

➧

Table of Temperature Compensation by adjusting the resistance (Difference with the current temperature)

E.g.) If the refrigerator compensation resistance (RCR1) is changed from 10K (the current resistance) to 18K

(the adjustment resistance), the temperature of the refrigerator rises +1 °C.
