{"title":"Analog Output K-Type Thermocouple Amplifier - AD8495 Breakout","handle":"analog-output-k-type-thermocouple-amplifier-ad8495-breakout","url":"/products/analog-output-k-type-thermocouple-amplifier-ad8495-breakout","description":"The AD8495 from Analog Devices is an analog-output K-type thermocouple amplifier on a compact breakout board. Simply power the board with 3–18V DC, connect a K-type thermocouple to the terminal block, and read the temperature as a voltage on the OUT pin — no digital protocols or complex configuration needed.\n\nTemperature conversion is straightforward: Temperature = (Vout - 1.25) / 0.005 V. For example, 1.5V output = 50°C. The board includes a TLVH431 1.25V precision voltage reference for accurate cold-junction compensation.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nSimple Analog Output – Read temperature as a voltage on any ADC pin\n\nWide Power Range – 3V to 18V DC input\n\nCold-Junction Compensation – Built-in TLVH431 1.25V precision reference\n\nTerminal Block Included – Easy thermocouple connection, no soldering needed\n\nBreadboard Friendly – Pin header included for prototyping\n\n\nSpecifications\n\n\nAmplifier – Analog Devices AD8495\n\nThermocouple Type – K-type only\n\nSupply Voltage – 3V to 18V DC\n\nOutput – Analog voltage (5 mV/°C)\n\nTemperature Range (5V power) – -250°C to +750°C (0 to 5V output)\n\nTemperature Range (3.3V power) – -250°C to +410°C (0 to 3.3V output)\n\nConversion Formula – Temperature = (Vout - 1.25) / 0.005\n\n\n\nImportant: This amplifier works with K-type thermocouples only. It will not work with any other thermocouple type. Thermocouple is sold separately.\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× AD8495 Thermocouple Amplifier Breakout Board (fully assembled)\n1× 2-pin terminal block (colour may vary)\n1× Pin header\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":8947,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-1778","price":23.69,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
