    SNIU024B – January 2015 – Revised August 2015 Introduction The LMT70EVM allows users to evaluate the performance of the LMT70 temperature sensor. The EVM comes in a USB stick form factor package with an onboard MSP430F5528 microcontroller that interfaces with both the USB host computer and the LMT70 device. The EVM also comes with perforated slots that the user can break apart to separate the microcontroller and LMT70 device for remote temperature measurements.
