We provide a library for the 8-pin I2C Click on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Library Description

The library contains a basic functions for using 8 pin I2C click Board™.

Key Functions

Example Description

The application is composed of three sections :

void application_task ( )
{
 float temperature;
 char demo_text[ 20 ];
 temperature = surfacetemp_get_temperature( );
 FloatToStr( temperature, demo_text );
 mikrobus_logWrite( "> Temperature : ", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_LINE );
 Delay_ms( 1500 );
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be found on our LibStock page.

Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:

Additional Notes and Information

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need a USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.

MIKROSDK

The 8 pin I2C click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroElektronika Software Development Kit. To ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications, mikroSDK should be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using.
