ABSTRACT:
A humidity detecting circuit for detecting the ambient humidity in a cooking chamber, which includes a constant current source, a first temperature-detecting resistor self-heated by the constant current source to detect the ambient humidity and having one terminal connected to an output terminal of the constant current source, and a second temperature-detecting resistor having one terminal connected to the one terminal of the first temperature-detecting resistor to detect the ambient temperature. An operational amplifier having an inverting input terminal, a noninverting input terminal and an output terminal is provided, the inverting input terminal being connected to the other terminal of the second temperature-detecting resistor so that the terminal voltage of the first temperature-detecting resistor may be inputted into the inverting input terminal through the second temperature-detecting resistor. A feedback resistor is associated with the operational amplifier and has one terminal connected to the output terminal of the operational amplifier and an other terminal connected to the inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier.
