STK502 includes a two screw-terminal block where a sensor can be connected. The
STK502 kit is shipped with a NTC-thermistor attached to this screw-terminal. A NTC-
thermistor is characterised by the fact that when the temperature goes down the resis-
tance goes up. Using a voltage divider and reading the voltage over the thermistor
through the ADC-channels on ATmega169, the temperature can be calculated. Applica-
tion note “AVR064: STK502 – A Temperature Monitoring System with LCD Output”
describes the details of the application.
2.7.1 Sensor Switches Two switches on the STK502 are used to connect the sensor to the ADC-channels on
the ATmega169 as shown in Figure 2-17.
