Temperature Sensor System Driver

This section describes the API for the MC56F83xx Temperature Sensor System on-chip module.

The functionality of the Temperature Sensor System module itself is described in the

MC56F8300 Peripheral User Manual.

Introduction

The Temperature Sensor module intended to operate in conjunction with an on-chip

Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC). The module is composed of a custom analog block and a

simple IPBus interface. Temperature readings may be taken through the ADC. The ADC includes

the ability to continuously monitor an input and issue an interrupt when a limit is exceeded. This

provides the ability to easily implement an over-temperature alert.

This section describes the Temperature Sensor System driver software providing the lowest level

software layer, interfacing hardware to software.

Quick Reference
