14Requirements
15************
16
17- MAX6675 wired to your board SPI bus
18- K-thermocouple connected to MAX6675 T+/T- inputs

25Building and Running
26********************
27
28This sample can be built with any board that supports SPI. A sample overlay is
29provided for the NUCLEO-F030R8 board.

37Sample Output
38=============
39
40The application will read and print sensor temperature every second. Note that
41temperature fetch will fail if the K-thermocouple is not connected. This is
42because MAX6675 is able to detect if the K-thermocouple is connected or not.
