The TMP1827EVM allows users to evaluate the performance of the TMP1827 digital temperature sensor. The EVM comes in a USB stick form factor, with an onboard MSP430F5528 microcontroller that interfaces with both the host computer and the TMP1827 device using a Single Wire interface. The module is designed with perforations between the sensor and host controller on the EVM board. The perforation allows the user flexibility in their evaluation:
The user can connect the TMP1827 to the user's system/host.
The user can connect the EVM host and software to the user's system with TMP1827 devices.
Small individual boards allow the user to place sensors in the user's system.
Hole spacing is compatible with common 0.1" prototyping breadboards
