"""Thermistor Value Lookup Table Generator

Generates lookup to temperature values for use in a microcontroller in C format based on: 
http://hydraraptor.blogspot.com/2007/10/measuring-temperature-easy-way.html

The main use is for Arduino programs that read data from the circuit board described here:
http://make.rrrf.org/ts-1.0

Usage: python createTemperatureLookup.py [options]

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help
  --r0=...          thermistor rating where # is the ohm rating of the thermistor at t0 (eg: 10K = 10000)
  --t0=...          thermistor temp rating where # is the temperature in Celsuis to get r0 (from your datasheet)
  --beta=...            thermistor beta rating. see http://reprap.org/bin/view/Main/MeasuringThermistorBeta
  --r1=...          R1 rating where # is the ohm rating of R1 (eg: 10K = 10000)
  --r2=...          R2 rating where # is the ohm rating of R2 (eg: 10K = 10000)
  --num-temps=...   the number of temperature points to calculate (default: 20)
  --max-adc=...     the max ADC reading to use.  if you use R1, it limits the top value for the thermistor circuit, and thus the possible range of ADC values
