Components are the building-blocks of a microCommander embedded application. When you build an application using microCommander you will use the mVisual development tool to drag-and-drop Components into your application. For this application we will need 5 Components, 1 of each of the following:

Analog Input Agent
Gets the readings from the thermistor sensor.

Converter
Converts the raw count from the Analog Input Agent into measurements (in °C) using linear interpolation with values from a Lookup Table.

Lookup Table
Holds a table containing values used for linear interpolation.

Digital Output Agent
Outputs a digital signal to activate or deactivate the heater.

On/Off Controller
Compares the temperature read from the sensor against a setpoint (the desired value, 38.89 °C). Activates or deactivates a heater accordingly. This is the most important Component in this application.
