| While using the AVR it is practical to use a conversion table of values of temperature and analogue-digital converter to find the correct temperature. It is wise to find corresponding value of analogue-digital converter for each temperature degree of desired range of temperature because reverse table will be too large due to the amount of 10 bit ADC values. It is recommended to use any kind of spreadsheet program (MS Excel, LibreOffice Calc, etc.) to make the table. // | While using the AVR it is practical to use a conversion table of values of temperature and analogue-digital converter to find the correct temperature.
