Programming TMP102/TMP112 using TWI

[Gavin]

Has anyone had any success setting the configuration register on TMP102/112 temperature sensors via I2C? I'd like to switch the sensor to one-shot mode to further minimise current usage - I'm on a mission to hit 3uA when sleeping and next step is shutdown the temp sensor between reads.

I would really benefit from a coded example to work with to bridge the gap between the TWI documentation and the sensor datasheets

Hi

I have posted a basic TWI driver example here. It is based on the drivers found in SDK V9.0.0 and simply scans your TWI bus for devices. It does not send any commands or anything like that. I'm afraid I don't have any TMP sensors to play with so I can't make a real example for you

Achieving what you want shouldn't be that difficult though.

1. Send a write command to the TMP's address (addresses specified in Table 4 in the TMP102 datasheet).

2. Continue with an memory address byte pointing to the configuration register (should be 0x01 according to Table 7).

3. Finally transmit two bytes where the last bit (the SD field) in the first byte is set to to shut the device off. I think the datasheet is a little unclear regarding the byte order so it might be the last bit in the last byte.

Oops, my bad. Edited the answer with a link now.
