An Arduino microcontroller board measures the voltage across a silicon diode to calculate its temperature. Resistors and a voltage regulator provide constant current into the silicon diode. We present a graphical user interface based on the open-source Processing language. The cost of the complete temperature measurement system is thus only a small fraction of any highly-developed commercial system. Our performance test shows that the system works at a reasonable accuracy from 297.15 K (typical room temperature) down to 77 K (liquid nitrogen temperature).","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.09111v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/1910.09111v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a-low-cost-cryogenic-temperature-measurement","repo_url":"https://github.com/brucewlee/Low-Cost-Cryogenic-Temperature-Measurement-System","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null},{"paper_slug":"a-low-cost-cryogenic-temperature-measurement","repo_url":"https://github.com/kinetic-orange/Low-Cost-Cryogenic-Temperature-Measurement-System","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
