Hello,
I am looking for some some nRF5340 example code that reads the nRF5340 die temperature using zephyr APIs.
I've looked at previous posts but I could only find this one https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/56171/how-to-get-die-temperature-on-nrf52832-using-zephyr from 10 months ago that stated none existed. I am hoping someone, somewhere musty have done something similar.
Thank you.
Kind regards
Hi,
The temp peripheral is only accessible on the network core:
https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ps_nrf5340/temp.html?cp=3_0_0_6_33
So we need to configure the board nrf5340pdk_nrf5340_cpunet, but since the network core is started from the app cpu, you first need to have something on the app core running with this config set:
CONFIG_BOARD_ENABLE_CPUNET=y
I used sample/nrf5340/empty_app_core.
For uart output from the network core, connect P0.25 to P0.20.
If you also need UART RXD, connect P0.26 to P0.22.
Here's an example that shows how to use the NRF_TEMP peripheral:
Kind regards,
Håkon
Hi Hakon,
I have built and run the project that reads the die temperature. I can see the see the temperature values going up and down as I heat and cool the device. However, I am still not clear how to read these values from the network core into my application.
Please advise.
Kind regards
Mohamed
Hi Hakon,
I have implemented the changes in my project as per your example but I am unable to load my project in SES. Below in blue is the error I am getting. Note, I am using SES v5.34a and NCS v1.5.0-rc1.

Hi,
Learner said:What are the two folders blinky_send and blinky_temp for?
Those should have been deleted, as the project name wasn't descriptive from my side. My apologies for this.
You should use blinky_netcore_temp (nrf5340pdk_nrf5340_cpunet) and blinky_appcore.
Were you able to run these successfully and fetch the temperature data from one core to the other?
You are getting an error wrt. spi sources. Could you try adding "CONFIG_NRFX_SPIM1=y" to see if it compiles then?
You are also setting the overlay by aliasing it to itself. Try just keeping it as-is without the alias.
Kind regards,
Håkon
Thank you Hakon.
For some reason I could not reply to your latest response. The fields "Reply" "Verify Answer" "More" are not showing. So, I am replying to you from one of your earlier responses.
Were you able to run these successfully and fetch the temperature data from one core to the other?
Yes, I can read the temperature values in the Terminal Emulator window in SES.
You are getting an error wrt. spi sources. Could you try adding "CONFIG_NRFX_SPIM1=y" to see if it compiles then?
You are also setting the overlay by aliasing it to itself. Try just keeping it as-is without the alias.
I applied both suggestions but the problem remains. Note, my overlay file worked fine even with the spi1 alias before I added this,
&temp {
compatible = "nordic,nrf-temp", "nordic,nrf-spim";
status = "okay";
};
I think I found what I was doing wrong, I was selecting the wrong board for my application. I was selecting nrf5340pdk_nrf5340_cpunet instead of nrf5340pdk_nrf5340_cpuapp.
My application project is loading successfully now but I am getting this build error. Any suggestion?

Good morning Hakon,
Were you able to run these successfully and fetch the temperature data from one core to the other?
Although I did report seeing the temperature values printed on the App Core side, I don't see them this morning. The App Core boots up and all I can see in SES Terminal Emulator is this message,
*** Booting Zephyr OS build v2.4.99-ncs1-rc1 ***
App Core
In fact, I remember now, I had the same problem yesterday at first then after I open Segger RTT Viewer suddenly the App Core application started printing the temperature values. Please answer the following questions about this example.
Q1/ Is this the expected behaviour?
Q2/ What is this line doing? It seems to kick start the communication between App and Net Cores.
uint32_t ret = ipm_send(ipm_tx_handle, 1, 0, NULL, 0);
Q3/ I expected to see both the message "TX ID <id>" and "RX ID <id>" but I don't, I only this "RX ID 0"
Q3/ Please explain the chronological sequence of events that is taking place between the App Core and the Net core.
Thank you for your support.
Kind regards
Mohamed
Hi Hakon,
While waiting for your response to my previous reply where I asked you four questions I went back to my application (App Core) where I implemented the die temperature software based on your example. I am now unable to load the project in SES (File > Open nRF Connect SDK Project...). I am getting this error,
Cannot create project
create_nordic_project.py failed(1)
I am attaching a screen capture of the nRF Connect Options selected.
Note, I am selecting the board nrf5340pdk_nrf5340_cpuapp for the App Core application. However, I've noticed in you very first response to my question you mentioned this
The temp peripheral is only accessible on the network core:
https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ps_nrf5340/temp.html?cp=3_0_0_6_33
So we need to configure the board nrf5340pdk_nrf5340_cpunet, but since the network core is started from the app cpu, you first need to have something on the app core running with this config set:
Fullscreen1CONFIG_BOARD_ENABLE_CPUNET=yXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXCONFIG_BOARD_ENABLE_CPUNET=y
Must I include the above config line in my App Core project? Note, this line is not present in the project file prj.conf of your App Core example.
Another windge about DevZone, I cannot edit some of my responses.
Kind regards
Mohamed
