The ``max6675`` temperature sensor allows you to use your MAX6675 thermocouple
temperature sensor (`datasheet <https://datasheets.maximintegrated.com/en/ds/MAX6675.pdf>`__, `SainSmart`_) with ESPHome

As the communication with the MAX6675 is done using SPI, you need
to have an :ref:`SPI bus <spi>` in your configuration with the **miso_pin** set (MOSI is not required).

Connect ``GND`` to ``GND``, ``VCC`` to ``3.3V`` and the other three ``MISO`` (or ``SO`` for short),
``CS`` and ``CLOCK`` (or ``CLK``) to free GPIO pins.

    # Example configuration entry
    spi:
      miso_pin: D0
      clk_pin: D1

    sensor:
      - platform: max6675
        name: "Living Room Temperature"
        cs_pin: D2
        update_interval: 60s

Configuration variables:
------------------------

- **cs_pin** (**Required**, :ref:`Pin Schema <config-pin_schema>`): The Chip Select pin of the SPI interface.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the sensor. Defaults to ``60s``.

- **spi_id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID of the :ref:`SPI Component <spi>` if you want
  to use multiple SPI buses.
- All other options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
