68HC11 Temperature measure and Display
Introduction
This lab is to show how the A/D converter on the 68HC11 works and the
hardware required to do it. The objective and requirements of the lab were to write
code to use the A/D converter and know the hardware requirements to use the
temperature sensor.
We were to scale the Temperature sensor to read from 0 to 100 Celsius.
Included in this objective was the task of connecting the temperature sensor and
the LEDs to the HC11. Also included in this objective was the task of designing
software to do the following: initialize the A/D converter and serial subsystems;
control the measurement and storage of temperature in a RAM variable called
TEMP; and control the display of temperature on the LED outputs.
Procedures for testing and Design
Figure 1
Figure 1 shows the interaction between the 68HC11 and the LM3911 sensor.
Procedure was to test the LM6911 and record data off of the temperature reading of
an ice bath that is gradually heated.
Then on the input of the terminal tell the 68HC11 to read and display the temp and
the corresponding LED number for the given temp as well.

Connecting the Temperature sensor to the 68HC11
The LM3911 is the sensor that was used in the lab. The
could not be directly connected to the 68HC11 because it
output a current and the 68HC11 A/D converter can only
be supplied with a Voltage source between 0-5V. To
solve this problem a new circuit was designed to convert
the current to voltage in the proper manor.

To the right is the integrated op-amp that
allows for the LM3911 to supply a current and thus
supply a voltage to the 68HC11.

Water Bath Reading
For the
Testing, we had a
bath of ice water inside for the water bath heater. To allow for consistent results we
also included a mercury thermometer. I took readings from the lowest point we
Robert Scott Fritzsche
could reach and read which was 2 degrees C and then took reading at 5 degree
intervals. At first there was a 7 degree difference between the 68HC11 and all the
other readings. To solve this we thought the problem might have been the
resistance not being exactly what was calculated. To fix this we added a 1K pot
resistor and tuned it till the results lined up. There are still some variations in the
results. But for the most part the readings were within a degree or so.
Conclusion
This report shows how the 68HC11 hardware and software combined with the
LM3911 can be used to make a viable temperature sensor. While all of the reading
were not exactly as read by either the thermometer or the water bath sensor, this
could be fine-tuned by either the resistors used or through code changes. The LED
lights connected to the Temperature readings was the easiest part of the coding.
This A/D conversion lab was completed properly and thoroughly introduced
me to the A/D converter.

Appendix:
Figure 1 shows an accurate representation of the 68HC11 hardware. This picture
was taken from the internet and shows a slight problem. My code uses the PE1 port
and not the PE2 port on the 68HC11. The second problem is that the figure was
designed for 20-90 degrees F and not 0-100 degrees C.
