## 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. Temperature 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. Key Features Simple Analog Output – Read temperature as a voltage on any ADC pin Wide Power Range – 3V to 18V DC input Cold-Junction Compensation – Built-in TLVH431 1.25V precision reference Terminal Block Included – Easy thermocouple connection, no soldering needed Breadboard Friendly – Pin header included for prototyping Specifications Amplifier – Analog Devices AD8495 Thermocouple Type – K-type only Supply Voltage – 3V to 18V DC Output – Analog voltage (5 mV/°C) Temperature Range (5V power) – -250°C to +750°C (0 to 5V output) Temperature Range (3.3V power) – -250°C to +410°C (0 to 3.3V output) Conversion Formula – Temperature = (Vout - 1.25) / 0.005 Important: This amplifier works with K-type thermocouples only. It will not work with any other thermocouple type. Thermocouple is sold separately. Package Contents 1× AD8495 Thermocouple Amplifier Breakout Board (fully assembled) 1× 2-pin terminal block (colour may vary) 1× Pin header
