  • I2C w/MLX90632 Thermopile

    Trying to obtain the RAW data only for object and ambient without converting to F or C with this Melexis sensor.
    Had a nicely working program with a TI part that got obsoleted quickly so need to convert to this part. The TI part needed a 'general call' to get I2C going properly. Can't see a reference to that with this sensor.
    Need just the few lines to grab the two registers associated with the raw object and ambient temp registers.
    Any help appreciated.
    Attached is data sheet for sensor.
    Thanks,Keith

    Well Keith, According to section 10.6 of the spec. all you have to do is read 10 locations in a row and you have all the raw data as well as the status register. That is of course after you set it up for the right address. I would have it in continuous mode of operation.
