I would like to monitor my car's oil temp. It does not have a sensor at the moment, so I want to use this one from Bosch http://www.bosch-motorsport.de/pdf/sensors/temperature/NTC_M12-H.pdf .
What would be needed to do this and will it be complicated to come up with the math needed to convert the signal into degrees F and C?
A math as simple as:
In electronics, a voltage divider (also known as a potential divider) is a passive linear circuit that produces an output voltage (Vout) that is a fraction of its input voltage (Vin). Voltage division is the result of distributing the input voltage among the components of the divider. A simple example of a voltage divider is two resistors connected in series, with the input voltage applied across the resistor pair and the output voltage emerging from the connection between them.

Sensor is good, just connect it to a resistor 1-3kOhm, as they say,
