Abstract
The main objective of this project was the development of fully functional microprocessor controlled thermoelectric ammeter for laboratory and didactic purposes. Device is based on analog thermoammeter transducer, Kamduino platform and thermocouple transducer with cold junction temperature compensation. The main advantage of this unit is direct measurement of the effective value of the electrical current (True RMS), regardless of the shape and frequency of the signal, combined with modern signal processing and data output capabilities.
