Communication Protocol
The MTQ911 communicates via UART (RX/TX) at a baud rate of 9600. The device responds to ASCII commands and returns temperature values in Celsius.
Code Examples
### Example 1: Temperature Control using UART (Arduino)
This example demonstrates how to use the MTQ911 with an Arduino board to control the soldering iron's temperature.
```cpp
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial mySerial(2, 3); // RX, TX
void setup() {
  mySerial.begin(9600);
  Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
  // Set temperature to 350C
  mySerial.println("T350");
  delay(1000);
// Read temperature
  mySerial.println("RT");
  char temp_str[6];
  mySerial.readBytesUntil('
', temp_str, 6);
  Serial.println("Temperature: ");
  Serial.println(temp_str);
delay(1000);
}
```
### Example 2: Analog Output Temperature Monitoring (Raspberry Pi)
This example shows how to use the MTQ911's analog output to monitor the temperature using a Raspberry Pi.
```python
import time
import board
import busio
import adafruit_ads1x15.ads1015 as ADS
# Set up ADC
i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)
ads = ADS.ADS1015(i2c)
while True:
    # Read analog temperature value (0-5V)
    temp_voltage = ads.read_adc(0)
# Convert voltage to temperature (assuming 10mV/C)
    temp_celsius = temp_voltage  500 / 1023
print("Temperature: {:.2f}C".format(temp_celsius))
time.sleep(1)
```
Note: In this example, an external ADC (ADS1015) is used to read the analog output from the MTQ911. The ADAFruit library is used to interact with the ADC.
### Example 3: IoT Integration (Node-RED)
This example demonstrates how to integrate the MTQ911 with Node-RED, a popular IoT development platform.
