Experiment 16 Checking the Calibration of a Temperature Sensor

This experiment utilizes the following electronic components available from MicroLab, Inc., Bozeman, Montana (www.microlabinfo.com)  

National Semiconductor LM-35 temperature sensor with a category 5 connector 

Battery module, catalog number 050-061-110, with two 9-V batteries 

Digital voltmeter or digital multimeter, like the one used in Experiment 15 

The battery module is a circuit board with the power source (two 9-V batteries) mounted on it and a receptacle for receiving the category 5 connector. It also has the output display terminals that the sensor requires for connection to a voltmeter to display the output voltage. The voltmeter or multimeter connects to these display terminals. The module has additional electronic components and connections with which we will not concern ourselves in this experiment.
