This is my first project, and I'm trying to take in the temperature with a DS18b20 and display it to a LCD. I wired it incorrectly (reversing the temp sensor) and it heated up pretty quickly. Is there a way to determine if I blew the sensor? The LCD displays 85 C and 185 C at room temperature. To do this I borrowed some code (which I don't fully understand yet). Any help would be much appreciate! I am such a noob at this!
