In this tutorial, you will learn how to connect temperature sensor to a BeagleBone Black. Because the BBB runs Linux, there are many ways in which it can be programmed. In this tutorial we show how to read analog values form a TMP36 temperature sensor using Python. The temperature sensor chip used is the TMP36.
