The SparkFun Qwiic Thermocouple Amplifier MCP9600 (PCC Connector) is a high accuracy Thermocouple Amplifier equipped with an I2C interface, accessed over the Qwiic system.

This version of the board comes equipped with a PCC connector to accept a K-type thermocouple. This makes it perfect for a variety of applications, from measuring the temperature of your Crock-Pot to making sure your backyard induction furnace is up to temperature.

The MCP9600 has four onboard temperature alerts that you can configure! Instead of constantly polling the sensor over I2C, you can set a temperature limit to trigger an interrupt when the temperature reaches a certain value. This frees up your microcontroller and your I2C bus to do more important things.
