APPENDIX A:
SET-UP OVERVIEW
A.1
Thermistor PGA PICtail Daughter
Board
The Thermistor PGA PICtail Daughter Board contains
the analog circuitry represented in Figure A-1. The
thermistor converts its temperature to a resistance. The
voltage divider then converts that resistance to voltage
and sends it to the CH0 input of the PGA. The PGA
gains and buffers this voltage and sends it off-board.
Board power is applied at the +5V and GND inputs. The
SPI™ bus makes it possible to control the PGA; its gain
and input channel can be set as desired from the
software.

Daughter Board Block Diagram.
The test points make it easier to test key points in the
circuit, change the input signals and to use this board
as a stand-alone board.
• GND Test Point – Connected to the ground plane
and is a convenient ground point for any lab
equipment
• +5V Test Point – Allows measurement of the
positive supply voltage and provides a means to
power this board with a laboratory power supply
• CH0 Test Point – The place to measure the volt-
age divider’s output (also the PGA’s CH0 input)
• CH1 Test Point – Makes it possible to send any
desired signal to the PGA
More detail on setting up this demonstration board can
be found in the “Thermistor PGA PICtail™ Daughter
Board User’s Guide” [12].
