o
C, a K thermocouple outputs
34.9 µV per
o
C. The possible slope error in the voltage measurement is
0.00075x52 mV = 39 µV or 1.12
o
C (39/34.9). The basic resolution on the 200
mV range is 6.67 µV or 0.19
o
C. Thus, the possible error due to the voltage
measurement is 1.56
o
C on a non-reversing differential, or 1.31
o
C with a
reversing differential measurement.

When the thermocouple measurement junction is in electrical contact with the
object being measured (or has the possibility of making contact) a differential
measurement should be made.
Noise on Voltage Measurement
The typical input noise on the ±20 mV range for a differential measurement
with no integration and input reversal is 1.8 µV RMS. On a type T
thermocouple (approximately 40 µV/
o
C) this is 0.05
o
C. Note that this is an
RMS value, some individual readings will vary by greater than this. By
integrating for 250 µs the noise level is reduced to 0.6 µV RMS.
Thermocouple Polynomial: Voltage to Temperature
NIST Monograph 175 gives high order polynomials for computing the output
voltage of a given thermocouple type over a broad range of temperatures. In
order to speed processing and accommodate the CR5000's math and storage
capabilities, 4 separate 6th order polynomials are used to convert from volts to
temperature over the range covered by each thermocouple type. Table 3.4-3
gives error limits for the thermocouple polynomials.
