MCP9600 K-Type Thermocouple Converter

The MCP9600 K-Type Thermocouple Converter is a temperature module with cold-junction compensation that supports eight thermocouple types: K, J, T, N, S, E, B, and R. The MCP9600 Thermocouple allows users to program output registers, providing flexibility for various temperature applications.

The MCP9600 K-Type Thermocouple to Digital Converter features registers that enable low-power mode operation, suitable for energy-efficient systems.

Equipped with four pins—AL1, AL2, AL3, and AL4—and proper configuration, it can connect to four system zones, controlling each output’s status, ideal for microcontroller-based setups.

Applications of the MCP9600 Thermocouple

Petrochemical temperature management
Hand-held measurement devices
Industrial equipment
Ovens
Engine thermal monitoring
Temperature detection racks
