TMP108EVM User's Guide

This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the TMP108EVM evaluation board.

This user's guide discusses how to set up and configure the software, discusses the hardware, and

reviews various aspects of the software operation. Throughout this document, the terms evaluation board,

evaluation module, and EVM are synonymous with the TMP108EVM. This user's guide provides

information on the operating procedure, input and output connections, an electrical schematic, printed-

circuit board (PCB) layout drawings, and a parts list for the EVM.

1 Trademarks

All trademarks are the property of their respective owners.

2 Overview

The TMP108EVM allows users to evaluate the performance of the TMP108 digital temperature sensor.

The EVM comes in a USB stick form factor with an onboard MSP430F5528 microcontroller that interfaces

with both the host computer and the TMP108 device using an I2C interface. 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 TMP108 to the user's system/host.

• The user can connect the EVM host and software to the user's system with TMP108 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.

2.1 EVM Kit Contents

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

nearest you if any components are missing. TI highly recommends that users check the TI website at

http://www.ti.com to verify that they have the latest versions of the related software.

3.1 Perforations

The perforation between the USB controller and TMP108 sensor is labeled on both sides for pin

connections. image

3.2 Subregulator

The switch S1 enables and disables the on-board 1.8-V regulator U1. When the subregulator is enabled,

the green LED D3 illuminates. The subregulator must be enabled for normal operation of TMP108EVM.

3.3 Logic Level Translator

The translator U3 separates the MSP430 I2C host from the TMP108 device. This is not required for end

applications, but the translator is provided on the EVM as a courtesy. When the subregulator is disabled, a

voltage between 1.4 V and 3.6 V can be applied at the 1P8V net, which is the 1.8-V pin on the perforation.

This external voltage will illuminate the green LED D3 and power the TMP108 device.

3.4 Programming Header

The TMP108EVM comes pre-loaded with firmware that is necessary for the correct operation of the USB

interface and PC GUI software. The unpopulated header, J2, is provided for Spy-Bi-Wire access to the

MSP430F5528. TI does not recommend that users access this header or reprogram the device.

3.5 BSL Button

The TMP108EVM features push-button SW1 for entering USB BSL mode. This can be used for firmware

updates.

supported. Users can access the live version through one of the following actions:

• Go to the EVM tool page and click on the View button

• Go to dev.ti.com/gallery and search for TMP108EVM

Click on the application icon within the gallery to launch the software. Click on the prompt to install the TI

Cloud Agent Bridge browser plugin.

4.2 Offline Software

4.2.1 Download from dev.ti.com

Users can access the latest version of the offline software by navigating to the live version as noted

above. Look for the download icon and download both the application and runtime for the operating

system as shown in the Gallery Download.

5.2 Data Capture Tab

The Data Capture tab reports the temperature from the TMP108 device included on the TMP108EVM. To

enable Data Capture, select an Auto Read setting at the top of the Registers tab.

5.3 Settings Tab

The Settings tab provides the hardware configuration for the USB to I2C bridge and device features for the

TMP108 device.

Selecting the wrong Device I2C Address will cause the GUI to disconnect from the USB device. The

hardware must be modified at the TMP108 device to change the TMP108's address. The link icon in the

bottom left corner indicates the current connection status, and the user can click on the area to change

the connection status.

If the user makes changes to the High Limit and Low Limit fields, this will trigger an immediate write to the

TMP108's Limit register if Immediate mode is enabled on the Registers tab.

The Send One Shot button will force a I2C write to the TMP108's Configuration register with the M1 bit set

to 1.

5.4 Registers Tab

The Registers tab interacts with the registers and bits within the TMP108 device.

The Auto Read drop-down box configures polling of register contents. When Auto Read is Off, it is

necessary to click Read Register to fetch the contents of the current register. Read All Registers can be

used to fetch the contents of all registers at once. The Write Register button is greyed and disabled when

the drop-down next to the button is set to Immediate. Immediate mode triggers a Write operation each

time a register is modified. When Deferred mode is selected, the Write Register button is enabled, and

write operations will not be performed unless the Write Register button is clicked. These settings give the

user total control over I2C Bus activity, and enable individual transactions to be easily observed with an

oscilloscope, logic analyzer, or bus-sniffing device.
