Interfacing Maxim 6675 with datalogger AXE110P

Hi forum,


I am trying to interface a Maxim 6675 thermocouple digital amplifier with a 18X Datalogger in a simple way and without modifying the datalogger board.

From the 6675 datasheet It looks like i will need two 18X outputs and one input

I was thinking of using:

- outputs 1 and 5 (pins 7 and 11) which are connected to socket CT8
- input 2 (pin 1) from CT4.

I have a few questions which I hope someone will be able to answer:

- is this a correct setup? (in the Maxim datasheet schematic there is no pull up resistors like the ones for the pins 7 and 11 in the AXE board).

- what kind of connector connects to CT8 (in the AXE board) and where could I find it?

- are there possible alternative setups?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for that.

I will order something else too to avoid paying £3.50 P&P for a 10p component.


Anyone with an answer to the connection question?

I think I found a better way.

Use out 0 (pin6) in the connection where the buzzer would go

and out 6 (Pin 12) Out of CT9, the connector for the LCD.

I plan to use 2 and 3 Pin r/a sockets.
