Module: j5e/mf52a103j3470
Description
A module for measuring temperature using a MF52A103J3470 thermistor.
A thermistor is a type of resistor whose resistance is strongly dependent on temperature, more so than in standard resistors. The word thermistor is a portmanteau of thermal and resistor.Read more on Wikipedia
