3) Temperature Sensor:
The LM35 series are precision integrated-circuit
temperature sensors, whose output voltage is
linearly proportional to the Celsius (Centigrade)
temperature. The LM35 thus has an advantage
over linear temperature sensors calibrated in °
Kelvin, as the user is not required to subtract a
large constant voltage from its output to obtain
convenient Centigrade scaling.The LM35’s low Fig 3.BLOCK DIAGRAM OF A CELLULAR
