Electronic Room Thermometer Using Op-amp 741

These days electronic room thermometer is very popular, though it is expensive. Now here we designed a simple and cheap electronic room thermometer using a temperature sensor and op-amp 741.

Circuit Description of Electronic Room Thermometer using Op-amp 741

The heart of the circuit electronic room thermometer is IC1 (LM3911), which is used here as a temperature sensor. The output of this IC is variable according to temperature change. Its output increases at the rate of 10mV/0C rise in temperature. At 00C its output is 2.73V.

The output from IC1 is given to the input of IC2 (Op-amp) for necessary amplification. Amplified output from in 6 is given to micrometer through potentiometer VR2. The sensitivity of the electronic room thermometer is ± 0.10C. The range of this thermometer can be adjusted by VR1.

    This circuit is not working…

  2. I checked and verify it, and it is working well.

  3. K.P. Sharma

    Thank you sir. I’ve made the circuit and it is working

  4. khan

    what is micro meter ? is it guaga measurement ?

    1. No it is to show the deflection. i.e. it is used to show the temperature.

  5. Harsh

    Dear Sir
    If there is any substitute of Micrometer please tell.
    thank you.

    Where can i find Lm3911 ic? Also, what is the range of the micrometer?

    1. You can bye LM3911 from any electronic reparing shop. And you can use any ammeter in micro-ampere range (often used in physics lab)

    Plz explain me whole working of this circuit..like when i see the change in temperature or temperature of rom. In this ckt …plz reply fast

  8. sai krishna

    Sir , Can you please explain the working of this cicruit in detail ?

  9. Hashin Rayhan

    Hi sir,
    Can digital display be used as an alternative to micro meter?
