We want to be able to record the temperature of the outside air for our weather station. We can do this using a Thermistor.  This is a resistor that changes resistance relative to its temperature.  Unfortunately we are unable to measure resistance directly, we can however measure a voltage. Consider the circuit below: ____ Vcc […]
