Aaahhhhh.....There we go. Thank you. If this chip were in a very low power circuit (for which it is designed I think) there would be much less ohmic drop and it would really give 12v to the system, even more accurately if the battery were, say, 24v.
As to the part number: Omega DRG-SC-TC It has a couple dip switches for configuration. This one I set up for a "T" thermocouple, 0-257 degree F range, and 0-5v output.
