In designing personal electronics, industrial or medical applications, engineers must address some of the same challenges: how to increase performance, add features and shrink form factors. Along with these considerations, they must carefully monitor temperature to ensure safety and protect systems and consumers from harm. In this first chapter of Temperature Sensing Precision Labs, we teach the fundamentals of temperature sensing - application use-cases for temperature sensors, the various types of temperature sensors and the trade-off each sensor type presents.

These videos provide understanding of the fundamental functions used for rapid prototyping on TI solutions with minimal or no programming, including the following:

• Implementing necessary prototyping functions such clocks/GPIO, Read A/D, I2C/SMBus, etc.
• Seamless interface of various analog EVMs for customer “proof of concept”
• Standalone UI – Button, (GP Input - GPIO), LCD Display (“Hello”), Music, Serial Interface (Putty, Echo)

How many times have you said, “I would like to prototype an idea with TI silicon but I can not get software resources" or “I don’t know how to prototype/program.”

This training shows you how to get started prototyping on TI solutions with minimal or no programming, including the following tasks:
