Work the thermocouple problem. That is, calculate the smallest average change in temperature that results in a change in the lsb (least significant bit) for the specifications in course notes.

The Type K thermocouple has a sensitivity of about 41 μV/°C, i.e. for each degree difference in the junction temperature, the output changes by 41 microVolts If you have a 16-bit ADC, what is the smallest temperature change you can detect if the ADC range is 10 V?
