Library Description

The library contains basic functions for using VCT monitor click.

Key functions:

  • float vctmonitor_read_voltage_differential ( void ) - Differential voltage function
  • float vctmonitor_read_current ( void ) - Current function
  • float vctmonitor_read_temperature ( void ) - Temperature function

Examples description

The application is composed of three sections :

  • System Initialization - Initializes I2C module
  • Application Initialization - Initializes driver init
  • Application Task - Reads temperature, current value, and differential voltage every 4 seconds.
  • note - We used the next sets for the test: - Power supply - 4V - Current (Load) - 0A to 3A - The temperature reads from the external MMBT3904 sensor
void application_task ( )
{
    float temperature;
    float voltage;
    float current;
    
    current = vctmonitor_read_current( );
    FloatToStr( current,demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "Current: ",_LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text,_LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "mA",_LOG_LINE );

    voltage = vctmonitor_read_voltage_differential( );
    FloatToStr( voltage,demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "Voltage: ",_LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text,_LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "mV",_LOG_LINE );

    temperature = vctmonitor_read_temperature();
    FloatToStr( temperature, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "Temperature: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_TEXT);
    mikrobus_logWrite( "C",_LOG_LINE );

    mikrobus_logWrite("_________________",_LOG_LINE);
    Delay_ms( 4000 );
}

  • I2C Library
  • Conversions Library
  • UART Library

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART clickUSB 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.

ReRAM 2 Click is a compact add-on board containing highly reliable resistive random-access memory. This board features the MB85AS8MT, an 8Mbit memory organized as 1,048,576 words of 8 bits from Fujitsu Semiconductor. The MB85AS8MT uses the resistance-variable memory process and silicon-gate CMOS process technologies to form nonvolatile memory cells. This SPI configurable ReRAM can withstand many write cycles (1x106 rewrite operations), has a data retention period greater than ten years, and can read and write to random addresses with very negligible delay. This Click board™ is ideal as a nonvolatile storage media or temporary RAM expansion for storing variables in any embedded application that requires rapid writes and unlimited endurance.
