Application Programming Examples
This chapter provides two application examples to help you use the
module.
• Basic example
• Supplementary example
The basic example lets you display a temperature.
The supplementary example lets you manually select the display of
temperature in °C or °F.
This example lets you display the temperature of a bath °F on an LED
indicator display device. The display device requires BCD data, so the
program must convert the temperature reading to BCD.
