Abstract
A system for entering a temperature setting into a memory store and for displaying it, wherein the temperature setting includes a temperature level portion and a temperature scale portion. The temperature level portion corresponds to the temperature at which a microwave oven, for example, is to be set and the temperature scale portion indicates whether the temperature level portion is calibrated in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius. The temperature level is inputted through a decimal keyboard and a key signal encoder. Gating circuits transfer the temperature level from the key signal encoder and the temperature scale from a temperature unit code generator to a memory under control of a preprogrammed instruction data generator. A display circuit and display unit are coupled to the memory for displaying the temperature setting. A temperature level is supplied to a temperature setting register through another gating circuit to provide the temperature level to a temperature control circuit external to the temperature entering and displaying system.
