max6675 thermocouple module

The MAX6675 thermocouple module is a sophisticated temperature-sensing device that interfaces with a K-type thermocouple to provide accurate temperature readings. It converts the thermocouple’s analog signals to digital data, which can be easily read by a microcontroller through an SPI interface. This module is ideal for applications requiring precise temperature measurements and is commonly used in industrial, laboratory, and home automation projects.
