Temperature Sensor LM 335 from Texas Instrument

Temperature Sensor using IC LM 335 from Texas Instrument. LM 335 is Zener Diode which sensitive of temperature change in it surrounding , which is reverse bias on it breakdown area with output :

Vz = [10 mV/Kelvin] …..........[2-1]

Because there is gap different 273 degree between Kelvin and Celcius , so the output in Celcius for LM 335 from Texas Instrument will be :

Vz = 2.73 Volt + [ 10 mV/Celcius] T.........[2-2]

where T is in Celcius Degree

IC LM 335 from Texas Instrument have temperature range between -40 celcius degree – 100 celcius degree

I use LM 335 in Plastic Package TO-92 , another package for LM 335 is SOIC

Another IC temperature sensors from Texas Instrument are LM135, LM135A with TO-46 package, LM235 and LM235A in TO-92 package and LM 335 and LM 335A in SOIC package.

From this writing, I want to discuss about Simulation control system with IBM PC 

XT/AT for Temperature, heater, and pump using LM 335 as sensor, PIO 8255, ADC 0809 , MOC  from motorolla , and TRIAC .

This control system operate with software with QBasic , and I will write the schematic diagram, implementation, and software design.
