RF430-TMPSNS-EVM: Maximum temperature sensing

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: RF430FRL152H

Hi team,

What is the max temperature we support on the RF430-TMPSNS-EVM?

I know we typically say EVMs are “standard commercial” so typically up to 70C. It looks like the GUI exceeds that. I just didn’t see any mention of its max capability with the GUI in the users guide or as ever being asked on e2e.

Thanks,

Billy

Hello Billy,

The RF430FRL152H device itself is only rated operating temperature from 0-70C.

To be honest I am not entirely sure why you think the GUI exceeds that? Perhaps you were looking at Fahrenheit?

Thanks Ralph,

Yes I was just looking at the screenshot of the GUI which had a graph exceeding 70, then it said you can change from F to C. I don't know if it changes the max sensing value when you change back and forth between F and C so I had to ask here. I don't have this kit personally or the GUI installed.

Thanks,
Billy

Hello Billy,

It does. When you go to C it shows a similar range in degrees C.

Perfect, that’s exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks Ralph.
