Hi Guys
Silicone chip, an Australian Electronics mag posted a kit that uses the above mentioned sensor. I have googled this sensor and it is v popular with geeks. Have seen an example of it being potted for immersion with 3m epoxy potting compound.

I am not geek enough to understand how to interface this sensor.
What do you guys think of this as a water temp sensor (very small and very accurate)

Sorry, the GPX cannot support a 1-wire temperature sensor. We only support sensors that output a voltage in the 0-5V range -- for example, a thermocouple with a corresponding thermocouple amplifier, or an NTC thermistor with an appropriate pullup resistor.
