1 Overview

The LM60EVM allows users to evaluate the performance of the LM60 analog temperature sensor. The

EVM comes in a USB stick form factor for control and data logging, and has an onboard MSP430F5528

microcontroller that connects the host computer and the analog interface of the LM60 device. The module is

designed with perforations between the sensor and host controller on the EVM board. The perforation allows the

user flexibility in their evaluation:

• The user can connect the LM60 to the user's system/host.

• The user can connect the EVM host and software to the user's system with LM60 devices.

• Small individual boards allow the user to place sensors in the user's system.

• Hole spacing is compatible with common 0.1" prototyping breadboards.

1.1 Features

This EVM has the following features:

• Provides GUI for easy setup

• Perforated PCB allows for placement flexibility

• Two-pin header and wire terminal for connecting higher external power supply

• Software runs online or through offline installation

1.2 EVM Kit Contents

Table 1-1 details the contents of the EVM kit. Contact the nearest Texas Instruments Product Information Center

if any components are missing. TI highly recommends that users check the TI website at https://www.ti.com to

verify that they have the latest versions of the related software.

CAUTION

The LM60 integrated circuit and other components on the LM60EVM can be damaged by

electrostatic discharge (ESD). Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled

with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can

cause damage. ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device

failure.

2 EVM Hardware

2.1 LM60EVM Board

Figure 2-1 shows an image of the LM60EVM with some of the hardware features of the design labeled.

Figure 2-1. LM60EVM

2.2 Perforations

There are perforations between the USB controller and the LM60 sensor. These pins are labeled with their

functions on the board silkscreen, and can be used to either debug or provide an electrical connection when the

LM60 and controller board need to separated for testing.

2.3 Subregulator

The onboard 3.3-V regulator (U1) is enabled and disabled with switch S1. The subregulator must be enabled for

normal operation of the LM60EVM. The green LED (D3) illuminates when the subregulator is enabled.

2.4 Programming Header

The LM60EVM comes pre-loaded with firmware that is necessary for correct operation. Header J2 is provided

for Spy-Bi-Wire access to the MSP430F5528, but TI does not recommend that users access this header

or reprogram the device. This header may be required for recovery, however, if firmware corruption of the

LM60EVM occurs at any point.

2.5 BSL Button

The LM60EVM features push-button SW1 for entering USB BSL mode. This can be used for any necessary

firmware updates. This method is preferred over the use of the Spy-Bi-Wire programming header for firmware

2.6 Wire Terminal and Two-Pin Header

The onboard wire terminal (J3) and two-pin header (J4) can be used to connect an external power supply of

up to 10 V. In normal operation, connect the two-pin header using the provided two-pin header shunt. When

connecting an external power supply, disconnect the header by removing the shunt and screw down the wire

terminal to secure the external power supply wires in place.

2.7 EVM Operating Conditions

The LM60EVM power is supplied through the USB connector. The LDO (U1) converts the 5 V from the USB to

3.3 V used by the LM60 and the MSP430. The EVM may be directly inserted into a USB port on a PC or laptop,

or may be connected to the latter using an appropriate USB cable. Section 2.7 shows the different temperature

limits for the the controller and device sides of the EVM. These are set by the onboard MSP430F5528 and the

LM60 ICs on the controller and breakout portions, respectively.

4 Software

4.1 Home Tab

At start-up, the Home tab is displayed (Figure 4-1). Press the Learn More button to see device features and a

pinout diagram. The Home tab has shortcut icons to the Data Capture and Collateral tabs for quick access.

Figure 4-1. Home

4.2 Data Capture Tab

The Save Start and Save Stop buttons on the Data Capture tab allow the user to begin recording the

temperature data in a .csv file. Press the Save Start button to start the download and press Save Stop to

stop the download.

The Data Capture tab will automatically begin collecting temperature data when the application is launched. The

data is displayed in a scalar graph and will default to a refresh rate of 1 second. The drop-down menu allows the

user to change the refresh rate for the graph and temperature display. The options are the following:

• Off

• As Fast As Possible

• Every 500 ms

• Every 1 s

• Every 5 s

• Every 10 s

• Every 60 s

Additionally, the LM60EVM comes equipped with a firmware-based, low-pass filter to remove noise that can

cause erroneous temperature measurements. This method eliminates the need for implementing an extra

resistor and capacitor. The alpha value controls how much noise is filtered out. An alpha value of 1 (default)

will behave like no filter is being used. On the other hand, an alpha value of 0.1 eliminates a lot of noise. Try

inputting different alpha values between 0.001 and 1 to see how the filter response changes in real time.
