Sample application to read temperature value from a TMP007 I2C temperature sensor.

• Board_GPIO_LED0 - Indicator LED
• Board_I2C_TMP - I2C used to communicate with TMP007 sensor.
• The Sensors Boosterpack (http://www.ti.com/tool/boostxl-sensors) was used. It has the TMP007 sensor along with several other nifty sensors.

If you're using an IDE (such as CCS or IAR), please refer to Board.html in your project directory for resources used and board-specific jumper settings. Otherwise, you can find Board.html in the directory <SDK_INSTALL_DIR>/source/ti/boards/<BOARD>. Depending on your board, there will either be an onboard TMP007 sensor, or you will need the Sensors Boosterpack.

• Open a serial session (e.g. PuTTY, etc.) to the appropriate COM port. *The COM port can be determined via Device Manager in Windows or via ls /dev/tty* in Linux.

The connection will have the following settings:

    Baud-rate:     115200
    Data bits:          8
    Stop bits:          1
    Parity:          None
    Flow Control:    None

• Run the example. Board_GPIO_LED0 turns ON to indicate driver initialization is complete.

• The example will request temperature samples from the TMP007 and print them via the UART. A total of 20 temperature samples are read/printed before the example exits. Terminal output should resemble:

        I2C Initialized!
        Sample 0: 24 (C)
        Sample 1: 24 (C)
        Sample 2: 24 (C)
        Sample 3: 24 (C)

This application uses one tasks:

'getTempTask' - performs the following actions:

1. Opens and initializes an I2C driver object.

2. Uses the I2C driver to get data from the TMP007 sensor.

3. Extracts the temperature (in Celsius) and prints the value via the UART.

4. The task sleeps for 1000 system ticks.

5. After 20 temperature samples are recovered, the I2C peripheral is closed and the example exits.

TI-RTOS:

• When building in Code Composer Studio, the kernel configuration project will be imported along with the example. The kernel configuration project is referenced by the example, so it will be built first. The "release" kernel configuration is the default project used. It has many debug features disabled. These feature include assert checking, logging and runtime stack checks. For a detailed difference between the "release" and "debug" kernel configurations and how to switch between them, please refer to the SimpleLink MCU SDK User's Guide. The "release" and "debug" kernel configuration projects can be found under <SDK_INSTALL_DIR>/kernel/tirtos/builds/<BOARD>/(release|debug)/(ccs|gcc).

FreeRTOS:

• Please view the FreeRTOSConfig.h header file for example configuration information.

Code Composer Studio:

• When using in CCS for the CC3220 devices, it's recommended you do a "Free Run" instead of "Run". This is because when the CC3220 device goes into low power mode, emulation is lost.

SimpleLink Sensor and Actuator Plugin:

• This example uses a TMP007 sensor. It interfaces via the I2C Driver. For a richer API set for the TMP sensors, please refer the SimpleLink Sensor and Actuator Plugin. This plugin also offers a Button module to handle debounce also.
