Description
A potentiometer, DAC, or external source generates a DC temperature set-point voltage. Thermal feedback from the TEC module is compared to the set-point voltage to generate the TEC current control signal. The MAX1978 controls TEC current to accurately regulate temperature.
When using the DAC, the EV kit connects to the parallel port of a computer running Windows® 95, 98, or 2000.
