Hey people,
Im doing an diploma project in which I need to make a room temperature sensor? After some hours research I have found LM35. I would like to know:
If LM35 is a good sensor for the mentioned purpose?
Also, whats the importance of the quiescent current in a sensor? From my understand its good to have a low quiescent current sensor to make project power efficient.
Importance of gain in a sensor? From my understand this will make the sensor more accurate by giving large output per variation of degree celcius.
Importance of output impedance in a sensor? Which I don't really know.
Also, is using a digital sensor or analogue sensor better for this application?
As LM35 doesn't use single supply according to datasheet, so what is single supply?
Is there an alternative sensor that could be easy to implement or better accuracy or requires low power?
Hope someone can give me genuine help to understand the mentioned questions.
Thanks.
