MSP430FR2355: Reading Internal Temperature of MSP430FR2355 Device

Part Number: MSP430FR2355
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430WARE

Hello,

I am currently accessing the internal temperature sensor of the MSP430FR2355 device.

Just to be in the same page:

My ADC initialization is similar to all ADC Channels except the followings:

   * I enable the temperature sensor

         PMMCTL0 = PMMPW;
         PMMCTL2 |= TSENSOREN | INTREFEN; 

   * I configure ADC to use the internal Default reference voltage, 1.5V

          ADCMCTL0 &= ~ADCSREF;
          ADCMCTL0 |= ADCSREF_1;

   * I perform a read from Channel 12

   * I transform the read ADC value to Temperature

     I use the formula given in section 1.13.3.3 of the user's manual (slau445i.pdf).

     I use Formula 10.

     The ADC-105C and ADC-30C calibration values for the formula above is retrieved from Word Addresses 0x1A1C and 0x1A1A respectively.

     For some reason, the temperature I am reading is OFF by 20C or so. Room temp is about 25C and what I am reading is around 45C.

     Can you please check if I have neglected to include in consideration above?

     Would you please supply me with a working sample code?

 Thanks in advance for your help and support.

 Best regards,

 Ziggy

    I think you can find the example code from MSP430ware. Have you give enough sampling time for the temp sensor?

    Good Morning Eason,

    Thank YOU very much for your response.

    Interestingly, when I looked for the sample code, did not see it at the time.

    Checked it again and I found a sample code.

    That said, like you suspected, 16 clock cycles for sample and hold time was not good enough.

    Example code was using 256 clock cycles. Once I changed that, I started reading the correct temperature.

    Thanks again for your help and support.

    Best regards,

    Ziggy
