IWR1642BOOST: Read temperature from TMP112 in IWR1642BOOST

Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMP112, MMWAVE-SDK

Hi

I want to send the temperature of the board after every 1,000 frames. I've already load the people_counting code in flash of IWR1642BOOST.

  • Is there a demo code read temperature from TMP112 in IWR1642BOOST ?
  • Can I use the internal temperature sensor in  IWR1642BOOST? How?

Thanks

  • Hi,
    1. mmWave-SDK has i2c driver and test application which you can refer (packages\ti\drivers\i2c\test). Refer datasheet for TMP112 i2c-slave address to communicate.
    2. Device has inbuilt temperature sensor which you can read using 'rlRfGetTemperatureReport' API, refer 'packages\ti\control\mmwavelink\test\' for usage reference.

    With either of the above option you can read temperature by invoking it at every 1000 frames count to get the temperature reading.
