An inexpensive substitution for calibrated thermocouples, linearizing electronics, and the NBS thermocouple tables is obtained through the use of a hand-held calculator. Automatic offset corrections and interpolations to an output temperature are possible in a one button operation beginning with voltmeter EMF. The inverse operation is also given. Appropriate constants have been found for the Cu-constantan, iron-constantan, and chromel-alumel thermocouples.
