Thermometer-Thermostat - This is a simple thermostat that I designed to use with my central heating system. When is not in use acts like a thermometer. The prototype uses the AT90S2313 but it’s obsolete now, so I changed it with the pin to pin compatible ATtiny2313 (the photo shows my first prototype). __ AVR Projects Dim

Thermostat (1N4148) - Temperature controlled fan with diode temp sensor. This circuit controls very accurately a fan of any size. Just adjust the associated resistors for a different type like the R6 resistor of 100 ohm, 2 watt type and you’re all set. The above circuit diagram is for a small 12 volt fan, the size and type determined by the user. __ Designed by Tonny Von Roon
Thermostat Control for Electric Heaters - One Advantage of these two units is the Sensor can be placed Away from the heater, therefore sensing the Actual Room temperature, not the direct heat from the heater.

Thermostat for 12v Cooling Fan - This circuit will turn on a 12v DC powered cooling fan when the air temperature reaches a certain high temperature and will keep the fan turned on until the temperature drops below a second lower level.

Thermostat for 1KW Space Heater (SCR controlled) - Below is a thermostat circuit I recently built to control a 1300 watt space heater. The heater element (not shown) is connected in series with two back to back 16 amp SCRs (not shown) which are controlled with a small pulse transformer. The pulse transformer has 3 identical windings, two of which are used to supply trigger pulses to the SCRs, and the third winding is connected to a PNP transistor pair that alternately supply pulses to the transformer at the beginning of each AC half cycle. The trigger pulses are applied to both SCRs near the beginning of each AC half cycle but only one conducts depending on the AC polarity. __ Designed by Bill Bowden

Thermostat with Adjustable Hysteresis - Switching Circuits: This small thermostat allows you to select the size of its hysteresis. You can set both the temperature at which the relay will energize - and the temperature at which the relay will de-energize. The difference between these two temperatures is the hysteresis. __ Designed by Ron J.
Thermostat with LED Temperature Display - I needed to replace two old, unreliable thermostats for controlling the heating and cooling for a large garden shed. Commercial basic thermostats are available quite cheaply, but some lack the ability to control heavy loads or have the extra features that I require for saving energy when the door is often left open or to indicate temperature being out of range etc. I like the PIC 18F1320 microcontroller used in my previous project, so decided to use it again in a very similar design to drive three multiplexed LED displays and read the temperature from a Dallas/DS18x20 "1-Wire" sensor. __ Designed by D. Thorpe, 2006
Transistor Forms RS-232C Digital Thermometer - 05/09/96 EDN Design Ideas: An ordinary transistor can serve as an uncalibrated temperature sensor (Figure 1) for an accurate, PC-compatible thermometer. Unadjusted accuracy is more than0.5°:C over the -50 to +50°C range, and the only limitation on resolution is the time devoted to measurement acquisition Design by WS Woodward, University of North Carolina—Chapel Hill
Transistor junction monitors remote temperature - 06/22/00 EDN Design Ideas: The circuit in Figure 1 uses a regular, general-purpose transistor as the sensing element and a thermal-diode monitor IC to measure temperature. The ADM1021 usually connects to an on-chip thermal diode on a CPU die itself, but in this application the sensor connects to a regulator low-cost discrete npn transistor, the 2N3904 Design by Matt Smith, Analog Devices, Limerick, Ireland
Transistor junctions monitor temperature zones - 12/31/69 EDN Design Ideas: A simple circuit uses transistor junctions to monitor multiple temperature zones. The temperature sensors are ordinary, general-purpose, low-cost, diode-connected transistors. The well-known diode equation VBE = (kT/q) 'ln (IC /iS) shows that there is a temperature dependency of approximately 2.2 mV/°C for a base-emitter junction. __ Circuit Design by Matt Smith, Analog Devices, Limerick, Ireland
Transistors offer thermal protection for controller - 07/19/01 EDN Design Ideas: When a switch-mode power-supply controller, such as On Semiconductor's NCP1200, operates at a high ambient temperature, you should protect the entire power supply against lethal thermal runaway. The NCP1200 operates directly from the power mains without an auxiliary winding; therefore, the die in the IC dissipates power (Figure 1) Design by Christopher Basso, On Semiconductor, Toulouse, France

Weller WLC100 Electronic Soldering Station - One day you switch on your soldering station (in my case a Weller WLC100). You flick the switch and the red light comes "ON", indication power is okay. Ten minutes later you get ready to solder and find the soldering pencil is not hot at all. What the?! After the usual frustration period of confusion and bad words you decide to investigate and fix the problem. After all, you are a techie or technical inclined and you can 'fix anything'.
