2.1.0.0

Cooler Click is a compact add-on board designed as a cooling solution to manage heat in electronic systems efficiently. This board features the DRV8213, a brushless DC motor driver from Texas Instruments, ensuring a high-performance operation. This board also directly integrates a TMP007 temperature sensor and an MF25060V2-1000U-A99 cooling fan onto its platform, offering a compact and ready-to-use cooling system. It operates across a wide PWM frequency range from 0 to 100kHz, supports both 3.3V and 5V logic levels, and features several protection mechanisms, including undervoltage lockout, overcurrent protection, and overtemperature shutdown.
We provide a library for the Cooler Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.
This library contains API for Cooler Click driver.
cooler_cfg_setup
Config Object Initialization function. cooler_init
Initialization function. cooler_default_cfg
Click Default Configuration function. cooler_get_object_temperature
This function reads the object's temperature data in degrees Celsius. cooler_set_out_state
This function controls the operation of the cooler - on/off. This example demonstrates the use of the Cooler click board
by reading the target object temperature and controlling the cooler.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
The initialization of the I2C module, log UART, and additional pins.
After the driver init, the app executes a default configuration.
The demo application measures the temperature of the target object in degrees Celsius
and enables a cooler if the temperature exceeds the temperature high limit value. Results are being sent to the UART Terminal, where you can track their changes.
The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need 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. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
