HDC1050EVM User 's Guide User's Guide Literature Number: SNAU181A June 2015 – Revised June 2015 User's Guide SNAU181A – June 2015 – Revised June 2015 HDC1050EVM User 's Guide 1 Introduction The Texas Instruments HDC1050EVM evaluation module (EVM) enables designers to evaluate the operation and performance of the HDC1050 Relative Humidity and Temperature sensor. The EVM contains one HDC1050 (See Table 1). Table 1. Device and Package Configurations DEVICE IC PACKAGE U1 HDC1050 PWSON 6pin The EVM hosts an MSP430F5528 microcontroller (µC) as well as the HDC1050. The µC is used to control the HDC1050 and communicate with a host PC through a USB port. The EVM is designed to be broken into two sections if desired. The sensor section can be separated from the µC section so that the user can remotely locate the sensor from the µC section. 2 Setup This section describes the connectors on the EVM as well and how to properly connect, set up and use the HDC1050EVM. Figure 1.

This connector with its counterpart J2 allows the communication of the two sections through a 4wire cable. Pin out: • J1.1 GND • J1.2 SDA • J1.3 SCL • J1.4 DRDYn (NOTE: this signal is not supported by the HDC1050, and does not need to be connected to a host controller) • J1.5 VDD 2.1.2 J2 – 5x1 Header This header is not populated and can be installed if the EVM is broken in 2 sections: PC interface and Sensor. This connector with its counterpart J1 allows the communication of the two sections through a 5wire cable. Pin out: • J2.1 GND • J2.2 SDA • J2.3 SCL • J2.4 DRDYn (NOTE: this signal is not supported by the HDC1050n and does not need to be connected) • J2.5 VDD 2.1.3 J3 – USB Type A Connector This connector is used for communications with the PC and provides power for the EVM. 2.2 Hardware Setup The HDC1050EVM power is supplied via the USB connector. The LDO (U4) converts the 5V from the USB to 3.3V used by the HDC1050 and the MSP430. The EVM may be directly inserted into a USB port on a PC or laptop, or may be connected to the latter using the appropriate USB cable. The I2C address of the HDC1050 is 1000000xb and is fixed by design. The EVM features a Spy-by-Wire interface to the MSP430 that enables custom firmware development and debug using Code Composer Studio ©. 2.3 2.3.1 Software Setup System Requirements The Sensing Solutions GUI supports: • 64-bit Windows 7 • 64-bit Windows XP The current GUI does not support 32-bit Windows operating systems. The host machine is required for device configuration and data streaming. The following steps are necessary to prepare the EVM for the GUI: • The GUI and EVM driver must be installed on the host. • The EVM must be connected to a full speed USB port (USB 1.0 or above).

Launch the GUI. A detailed description of the GUI operation is presented later in this document. 2.5 Reducing the Sensor Thermal Mass The HDC1050EVM can be broken into 2 sections to isolate the thermal mass of the µC from the HDC1050. The yellow arrow in Figure 10 shows the board perforations that allow the two sections to be broken apart. Figure 10. HDC1050EVM µC and Sensor Sections The communication between the two modules is achieved through the connectors J1 and J2 and a 4-wire cable. In this configuration the thermal mass of the EVM is dramatically reduced, improving the temperature measurement performance of the HDC1050. The cable connecting J1 to J2 must conform to I2C cable length constraints. When used in this configuration, the GUI can still be used to communicate with the EVM and collect data. If the thermal mass of the sensor section is still excessive, the sensor section can be reduced by breaking it at the perforation shown by the yellow arrow, indicated in Figure 11. The PCB segment that hosts the HDC1050 is 5.5mm x 5mm. Figure 11.
