Question.
Design an edge computing device which will monitor the temperature of a chamber which is
changing slowly and transmit the values to a master device as depicted below. Assume a sampling
time of 1 minute and a 16-bit AD converter. The 16-bit temperature values need to transmitted
only when there is a change in the temperature of more than one degree Celsius. Therefore a
change detection algorithm needs to run on the slave controller. The master controller is
interrupted and a data transfer takes place. Subsequently the Master controller saves the time
and the 16-bit temperature values in the SRAM.
A heater is controlled to maintain the temperature at 25 degree Celsius. Assume ambient
temperature to vary between 35 to 45 degree Celsius.
