The Grove - I2C Thermocouple Amplifier (MCP9600) is a thermocouple-to-digital converter with integrated cold-junction and I2C communication protocol. This module is designed to be used in conjunction with a k-type thermocouple. The thermocouples have a much larger measurement range than thermistors. 

We also provide the alert function for this module, you can use the programmable alert pin to provide an interrupt signal to the controller.

Again, this module can't work alone, it must work with a k-type thermocouple.
