The ADT7420 is a high accuracy digital temperature sensor offering breakthrough performance over a wide industrial range, housed in an LFCSP package. It contains a band gap temperature reference and a 13-bit ADC to monitor and digitize the temperature to a 0.0625°C resolution. The ADC resolution, by default, is set to 13 bits (0.0625°C). This can be changed to 16 bits (0.0078°C) by setting Bit 7 in the configuration register to 1 (Register Address 0x03). The ADT7420 is guaranteed to operate over supply voltages from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Operating at 3.3 V, the average supply current is typically 210 μA. The ADT7420 has a shutdown mode that powers down the device and offers a shutdown current of typically 2 μA. The ADT7420 is rated for operation over the −40°C to +150°C temperature range.
Pin A0 and Pin A1 are available for address selection, giving the ADT7420 four possible I2C addresses. The CT pin is an open-drain output that becomes active when the temperature exceeds a programmable critical temperature limit. The default critical temperature limit is 147°C. The INT pin is also an open-drain output that becomes active when the temperature exceeds a programmable limit. The INT and CT pins can operate in either comparator or interrupt mode.
The goal of this project (Microcontroller No-OS) is to be able to provide reference projects for lower end processors, which can't run Linux, or aren't running a specific operating system, to help those customers using microcontrollers with ADI parts. Here you can find a generic driver which can be used as a base for any microcontroller platform and also specific drivers for different microcontroller platforms.
The driver contains two parts:
The Communication Driver has a standard interface, so the ADT7420 driver can be used exactly as it is provided.
There are three functions which are called by the ADT7420 driver:
I2C driver architecture
The implementation of these three functions depends on the used microcontroller.
The following functions are implemented in this version of ADT7420 driver:
Function | Description |
---|---|
unsigned char ADT7420_GetRegisterValue(unsigned char registerAddress) | Reads the value of a register. |
void ADT7420_SetRegisterValue(unsigned char registerAddress, unsigned char registerValue) | Sets the value of a register. |
char ADT7420_Init(void) | Initializes the comm. peripheral and checks if the device is present. |
void ADT7420_Reset(void) | Resets the ADT7420. |
void ADT7420_SetOperationMode(unsigned char mode) | Sets the operational mode for ADT7420. |
void ADT7420_SetResolution(unsigned char resolution) | Sets the resolution for ADT7420. |
float ADT7420_GetTemperature(void) | Reads the temperature data and converts it to Celsius degrees. |
HW Platform(s):
This section contains a description of the steps required to run the ADT7420 demonstration project on a Digilent Cerebot MX3cK platform.
The ADT7420 demonstration project for PIC32MX320F128H consists of three parts: the ADT7420 Driver, the PmodTMP2 Demo for PIC32MX320F128H and the PIC32MX320F128H Common Drivers.
All three parts have to be downloaded.
The following commands were implemented in this version of ADT7420 reference project for Cerebot MX3cK board.
