2.10Using OME-DB-8225 CJC Output

The OME-DB-8225 daughter board contains built-in cold junction compensation (CJC) circuitry that provides a 10mV per Deg C output. With 0.0 Volts @ -273 Deg C. The OME-A-822 should be protected from drafts and direct sunlight in order to accurately reflect room temperature.

CJC Calibration:

1.Connect the OME-A-822PGL/PGH to the OME-DB-8225 CN1

2.Set the OME-A-822PGL/PGH to single-ended Mode

3.Set the JP1 jumper to 1-2 and the JP2 jumper to 2-3 ( single-ended mode) 4.Read the temperature from a digital thermometer placed near D1/D2(See the

OME-DB-8225 Layout) .

5.Read OME-A-822PGL/PGH analog input channel 0 (single-ended Channel 0) 6.Adjust VR1 until a stable reading of 10mV per deg C is attained .

For example, when the ambient temperature is 24 deg C. the reading value of CJC will be 2.97V

(273 deg c +24 deg c ) X 10 mV/deg c = 2.97V

You will need an A/D channel for the CJC calibration. AI0 is reserved for CJC calibration when used in single-ended mode and CH0-HI & CH0-LO is reserved for the differential mode. differential mode is recommended when working with thermocouples.
