Abstract: This paper presents a system for characterization of thermoelectric generators (TEGs) for energy harvesting. This system can monitor and characterize up to three TEGs simultaneously and it is comprised by two main electronic circuits: The first one is composed by twelve input channels being three for reading voltage, three for reading current by making use of instrumentation amplifiers (reference ACS712) and six thermocouples for signal reading (
