Thermocouple measurement accuracy specifications include polynomial linearization, cold-junction
compensation, and system noise. The accuracy specifications assume the device is operated within its enclosure
and with the enclosure in a horizontal, upright orientation. The board should also be warmed up for the
recommended 20 minutes. If the maximum digital output load of 3.2 amps is applied, add an additional 0.30°C
to the typical and maximum accuracy specifications listed above. Errors shown do not include inherent
thermocouple error. Contact your thermocouple supplier for details on the actual thermocouple accuracy error.
