Phase 2: Temperature monitoring logged on webserver.
/* Web Server A simple web server that shows the temperature using an Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield. Parts list: 10k Thermistor Breadboard/Veroboard 10k resistor Arduino ( I use UNO) Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield The Thermistor Circuit: AREF---+3.3V----Therm----A0(Arduino)----10k res---> Gnd Better Readings: When doing analog readings, especially with a 'noisy' board like the arduino, we suggest two tricks to improve results. One is to use the 3.3V voltage pin as an analog reference and the other is to take a bunch of readings in a row and average them. The first trick relies on the fact that the 5V power supply that comes straight from your computer's USB does a lot of stuff on the Arduino, and is almost always much noisier than the 3.3V line (which goes through a secondary filter/regulator stage!) It's easy to use, simply connect 3.3V to AREF and use that as the VCC voltage. Because our calcuations don't include the VCC voltage, you don't have to change your equation. You do have to set the analog reference but that's a single line of code Taking multiple readings to average out the result helps get slightly better results as well, since you may have noise or fluctuations, we suggest about 5 samples.
