Status display for motor controller
#7
Can we debate the reason for the accuracy for a moment?
This was part of my confusion when trying to understand how you structured the code and your design decisions.
I really don’t see the need for this accuracy when measuring temperatures between 0 (freezing and may cause issues with lubrication) and 80 (motor and h-bridge burning hot and should be shut off immediately). Why is accuracy a concern? The reason for the measurement is added safety. Not a laboratory test. My current, naive implementation has about 0.5C - 1C resolution (from my memory, but even at +-2C it shouldn't be an issue). For the above use case that seems plenty to me.
What are your thoughts?
