Getting Started

The AS6200/C adapter board is ideal for rapid setup of a digital temperature sensor. To get started

connect the board to your microcontroller configuration as described in Figure 3: I²C connection.

Add a command in your source code to request two bytes from the selected I²C address. Finally

convert the returned data as described in chapter 4.2 Temperature Register to get the actual

temperature value.

R1, R2 and R3 are pull-up resistors for the I²C interface and the Alert pin.

Depending on the application, it is recommended to either populate the decoupling capacitor C1 or

C2.
