- Elektor 6-Channel Temperature Monitor & Logger – Partly Assembled Module
The 6-Channel Temperature Monitor can measure temperatures from as low as −240°C up to +850°C (real-world limits greatly depend on the sensors being used). Up to six 3-wire PT100 sensors (not included) can be connected for measuring up to six temperatures. Measured temperature values are sent on a serial port for data logging and/or further processing. The kit includes an optional serial LCD for displaying readouts right on the board.
Note: The kit requires soldering, a Serial to USB converter, and 9V power supply. See related products for these and PT100 temperature sensors.

Core Skill: Programming
If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.
Skill Level: Competent - The toolchain for programming is a bit more complex and will examples may not be explicitly provided for you. You will be required to have a fundamental knowledge of programming and be required to provide your own code. You may need to modify existing libraries or code to work with your specific hardware. Sensor and hardware interfaces will be SPI or I2C.

Core Skill: Electrical Prototyping
If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.
Skill Level: Competent - You will be required to reference a datasheet or schematic to know how to use a component. Your knowledge of a datasheet will only require basic features like power requirements, pinouts, or communications type. Also, you may need a power supply that?s greater than 12V or more than 1A worth of current.
