In this video I show you how the MAX31855 thermocouple module works. I talk about the connections, the wiring and of course the coding. I also show some tricks and tips about the bit shifting and bitwise operations which can become handy when you need to work with large amount of bits or you want to read a specific part from your binary number. This module is really nice because it supports negative temperatures and its measurement range is also really broad.
If the module gives weird readings, put a 10 nF capacitor between the input pins of the thermocouple!
