Designing of Embedded System for Distributed Temperature Monitoring

Abstract

The paper describes the development of distributed temperature monitoring system using DS80C400 microcontroller. The system is capable of monitoring the temperature through Ethernet. The 1-wire temperature sensors have been used in the system for the simplicity as no glue logic is required for converting this analog parameter in to digital form. An appropriate GUI environment has also been developed so that temperatures could be monitored remotely using any web browser.
