I have an ungrounded tip Type K TC connected to the Raspberry Pi hat MCC134. It works perfectly and accurately from room temp to 950C. It's flaky between 950C and 1100C returning intermittent Common Mode errors. Above 1100C, it returns only Common Mode errors.
I have replaced the TC with a known good TC's. I have changed the extension wire (which is also Type K of course) to shielded and unshielded and tried various methods for grounding the shield.
Nothing changes this behavior. At 1100C and above it returns only Common Mode errors. When the temp drops below 950C, it continues to work again perfectly. Any ideas?
