Working Principle

Description

The DS18B20 Water Proof Temperature Probe operates using a DS18B20 sensor encapsulated in a stainless steel tube, which is waterproof and moisture-proof. It uses a 1-Wire interface for communication, allowing multiple sensors to be connected to a single digital pin on a microcontroller. Each sensor has a unique 64-bit ID for identification. The sensor converts temperature data to a digital signal, which can be read over a long distance without signal degradation.

Sensor Types

DS18B20

Dos And Donts

Donts

  • Avoid Physical Damage: Do not expose the probe to conditions that could physically damage the stainless steel tube.,
  • Prevent Exceeding Temperature Limits: Do not use the sensor beyond its operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Dos

  • Use With Microcontroller: Connect the sensor to any microcontroller using a single digital pin.,
  • Use Pull-Up Resistor: Attach a 4.7kΩ resistor between the DATA and VCC lines when connecting to a microcontroller.,
  • Check Connection Polarity: Ensure the red wire is connected to VCC, the yellow/white wire to DATA, and the black wire to GND.
