4. Functionality
The C1322 module functions as a precision thermocouple signal conditioner and digital transmitter. It accepts a Type K thermocouple input, converts the analog thermoelectric voltage into a digital temperature value using a 15-bit ADC, and transmits the result via an RS485 serial interface.

Working Principle:
1. The Type K thermocouple generates a small voltage proportional to the temperature difference between its measuring junction and reference junction.
2. The C1322 amplifies and linearizes this signal internally, compensating for cold-junction temperature.
3. The analog signal is digitized with 15-bit resolution, ensuring high accuracy and repeatability.
4. The processed temperature value is transmitted as ASCII data over the RS485 bus to a master device (PLC, PC, or controller).

Use Cases and Applications:
- Industrial process monitoring and control
- Furnace and kiln temperature measurement
- HVAC and environmental testing systems
- Laboratory instrumentation
- Food and beverage processing
- Chemical and petrochemical plants
- Energy and power generation systems
- Distributed temperature monitoring in automation networks

Compatibility:
- Compatible with standard RS485 networks and Modbus/ASCII-based systems
- Integrates with PLCs, SCADA systems, and data acquisition software
- Suitable for multi-node RS485 networks with up to 32 devices per segment
