Description

Thermocouples have the widest temperature range than any other form of contact temperature sensor. The most common type of thermocouple probe is the K-Type that are often used in 3D printers.

The voltage generated by a thermocouple probe is extremely small (in microvolts per °C) and needs to be amplified. This amplification is built into multimeters or other test instruments with a thermocouple interface, but if you plan on using an microcontroller or SBCSingle Board Computer to make measurements there are several options for amplifier modules provided below with an analog or digital output.

The end of a K-Type probe that connects to an amplifier device can have either bare wires, spade/fork terminal connectors, or a standard flat pin male connector (some have round pin connectors). Bare wires or the spade/fork connectors work good with a screw terminal block on an amplifier board. The standard flat pin male connectors are easier to plug/unplug, but would require a PCC-SMP-K female connector on the PCB of the amplifier device or other suitable female adapter (e.g., screw terminal adapter, banana plug adapter, etc.).

More details on how thermocouples work, the different types of probes, and a comparison of amplifier modules, can be found in the Temperature Sensors article.
