1. A compressor assembly comprising:
- a shell;
a compressor housed within said shell;
a motor drivingly connected to said compressor;
at least one temperature sensor;
a printed circuit board associated with said at least one temperature sensor;
processing circuitry receiving data from said printed circuit board to determine operating conditions of said compressor;
