 1. Abstract
This report introduces the basic background and study the thermistor by using
Proteus and CodeVision AVR.

2. Introduction
1 1
 β− parameter equation : R = R0.e β .( T − ¿ ) (1)

 R0 is the thermistor resistance at temperature T0.

 Β is a curve fitting parameter.

#include <mega8.h>

#include <delay.h>

#include <math.h>

// Standard Input/Output functions

#include <stdio.h>

#define ADC_VREF_TYPE 0x00

#define Vref 5
#define R1 20000
#define R0 20000
#define T0 298
#define beta 4052

// Declare your local variables here

unsigned int adc_value;
float Vin, x, y, ToK, ToC, NTC;

 while (1)
{
// Place your code here
adc_value = read_adc(6);
Vin = (Vref * adc_value * 1.0f) / 1023;
x = adc_value * 1.0f / 1023;
NTC = (x * R1) / (1 - x);
y = log(NTC / R0);
ToK = 1 / ((y / beta) + (1.0f / T0)); //temperature in Kelvin
ToC = ToK - 273; //temperature in degree Celsius
printf("ADC value = %d; Vin = %f; Temp = %f \r\n", adc_value, Vin, ToC);
delay_ms(1000);
}

4. Result
T = 31 °C

T = 40 °C

9
T = 25 °C

5. Conclusion
In this report, we have tried to study the basic concept and how to use
Proteus and CodeVision AVR to simulate the operating way of Thermistor.
