Configuring a generic nonlinear sensor
Example: Thermistor
5kOhm
From sensor data sheet: resistance values over temperature
The sensor has a nonlinear behavior
Use characteristic curve for linearization
Input voltage is the ratio between pull-up resistor and thermistor
Drag the ‘Characteristic Curve’
analog signal source from the Toolbox
and drop it on the desired analog input channel in the C 60 project tree
