Math + facts = suck

In the last post I did some basic arithmetic to see if the system as designed should be able to measure 110F.  This post is about verifying the physical reality to see if matches the pristine mathematical theory. To turn the VICTD into temperature in Kelvin the function is below.  We know this from the previous post. $$T_K = V_{ICTD} \times 10^3 $$ Measuring the output of the probe I get a reading of 0.30111V.  Read more…
