Are the downloads available yet for the Eight Thermocouples DAQ board? The link on the webpage doesn't seem to be live. See attached screenshot.

If you are not using the watchdog, is it ok to power this board from the pi instead of using an external 5V supply connected to the edge connector on the thermocouple board?

 

[alexburcea]

Yes, you can power the card from the pi.

The user manual doesn't seem to describe which I2C addresses it can be configured for? What are they?

 

[alexburcea]

The I2C address range for RTD HAT is 0x40 to 0x47 corresponding to stack level 0 to 7
You can easy check by running "12cdetect -y 1" command on raspberry

The point of the message was to point out that I didn't find the I2C address in the user's manual.

 

[alexburcea]

Since we provide the drivers, theoretically you did not need the address but we will put it in the manual.
Thank you.

My customer is asking if the Thermocouple DAQ board has cold junction compensation?

 

[alexburcea]

Yes, each connector is guarded by 2 thermistors and we use the connector temperature to calculate thermocouple temperature.
