User's Guide SNIU039 – December 2019 HDC2022EVM User's Guide The Texas Instruments HDC2022EVM evaluation module (EVM) enables designers to evaluate the operation and performance of the HDC2022 Relative Humidity and Temperature Sensor. The EVM contains one HDC2022 (see Table Table 1. Device and Package Configurations...
2. Reload the browser window after installation to access the home screen of the HDC2022EVM GUI. 3. Connect the HDC2022EVM to the USB port of your computer via USB. Drivers for the device will install automatically and the GUI will connect to the EVM.
EVM GUI Software Setup The PC GUI software for the HDC2022EVM runs on TI's GUI composer framework. The software is available as a live version which runs in your browser, and is available as a download for offline use. The software is compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux Operating systems.
GUI Operation www.ti.com GUI Operation The section describes how to use the HDC2022EVM GUI Home Tab The Home Tab is shown at software launch. The Learn More link displays the key features and a functional diagram for the HDC2022 device. The icons on the left side of the screen are shortcuts which can be used for navigation to other tabs within the GUI.
Data Capture Tab The Data Capture tab reports the temperature and humidity from the HDC2022 device included on the HDC2022EVM. To enable data capture, ensure that an auto-read delay from the drop down menu at the top of the page is selected.
Each selection option/button on this tab has a specific function as described below: • I2C Frequency: Change the communication frequency between the control board and HDC2022EVM. • I2C Address: Selects the address option of the HDC2022.
Device Configuration The Device Configuration tab allows for easy configuration and setup of the HDC2022 device included on the HDC2022EVM. If immediate write mode is selected on the Section 4.5, then changes made in the selection boxes will be written to the HDC2022 device as soon as possible.
These settings give the user control over I2C bus activity, and enable individual transactions which can be easily observed via oscilloscope, logic analyzer, or bus-sniffing device. Figure 8. Register Tab of HDC2022EVM GUI SNIU039 – December 2019...
EVM Operating Conditions The HDC2022EVM power is supplied via the USB connector. The LDO (U4) converts the 5V from the USB to 3.3V used by the HDC2022 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 the appropriate USB cable.
EVM Hardware www.ti.com Reducing the Sensor's Thermal Mass The HDC2022EVM can be broken into 2 sections to isolate the thermal mass of the µC from the HDC2022. Figure 13 shows the board perforations that allow the two sections to be broken apart.
Figure 17. UniFlash Launch Screen, MSP430F5528 device selected. 8. Browse to the firmware file named USB2ANY-F5528-24MHZ.txt and select Load Image. Upon successful programming, the firmware image will be loaded and the HDC2022EVM will automatically restart. The HDC2022EVM firmware upgrade is then complete.
