Figure 1. Main Display for the MAX6675EVKIT
The MAX6675 EV kit can be monitored externally with a
microcontroller or other control device by cutting the
traces shorting the pins of JU2, JU3, and JU4 and con-
necting to the pads labeled SCK, CS, and SO.
The MAX6675 EV kit can also evaluate the MAX6674.
Remove the MAX6675 from the board and install the
new part. Select the MAX6674 radio button on the main
display of the software.
To enable the Open Thermocouple Detection, install a
shunt on jumper JU6. This connects pin 2 of the
MAX6675 to ground.
