TMP118 Evaluation Module
Description
The TMP118EVM is designed to provide a quick
setup to evaluate the TMP118 device and gain
familiarity with the device down to the bit-by-
bit register level. The EVM allows users to
evaluate the performance of the TMP118 digital
temperature sensor. The TMP118EVM is split into
two parts, an FR4-based motherboard containing
the Microcontroller, USB and breakable section with
Flexible Printed Circuit (FPC) connector for the sensor
board. The second portion features an FPC board
containing the TMP118 sensor to showcase the
sensor's competitive thermal response time.
Get Started
1. Order the TMP118EVM on
2. Attach TMP118 Sensor Board to MCU Board via
FPC Connector
3. Detach breakable FPC connector section and
solder connections (optional)
4. Connect the EVM to computer or user system
5. Go to the TMP118EVM gallery page on dev.ti.com
to either download the GUI or run online
6. Refer to the TMP118 data sheet for IC details
7. Visit our
E2E forums

- Page 8 3.3 Data Capture Tab The Data Capture tab reports the temperature from the TMP118 device included on the TMP118EVM. Temperature data is polled and displayed by default. By default, the MCU polls the registers with a 100ms delay. The CONVERT TEMP command (0x44) is sent automatically while polling. The polling rate setting on the Data Capture tab is synchronized with the polling rate setting on the Registers tab.
