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.

Click library

  • Author : Nenad Filipovic
  • Date : Jan 2024.
  • Type : ADC/I2C type

Software Support

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.

Library Description

This library contains API for Cooler Click driver.

Standard key functions :

  • cooler_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

    void cooler_cfg_setup ( cooler_cfg_t *cfg );
  • cooler_init Initialization function.

    err_t cooler_init ( cooler_t *ctx, cooler_cfg_t *cfg );
  • cooler_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.

    err_t cooler_default_cfg ( cooler_t *ctx );

Example key functions :

  • cooler_get_object_temperature This function reads the object's temperature data in degrees Celsius.

    err_t cooler_get_object_temperature ( cooler_t *ctx, float *temperature );
  • cooler_set_out_state This function controls the operation of the cooler - on/off.

    err_t cooler_set_out_state ( cooler_t *ctx, cooler_out_state_t out_state );

Example Description

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 :

Application Init

The initialization of the I2C module, log UART, and additional pins. After the driver init, the app executes a default configuration.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    cooler_cfg_t cooler_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    cooler_cfg_setup( &cooler_cfg );
    COOLER_MAP_MIKROBUS( cooler_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    err_t init_flag = cooler_init( &cooler, &cooler_cfg );
    if ( ( ADC_ERROR == init_flag ) || ( I2C_MASTER_ERROR == init_flag ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }

    if ( COOLER_ERROR == cooler_default_cfg ( &cooler ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Default configuration." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }

    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

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.

void application_task ( void ) 
{
    float temperature = 0;
    if ( COOLER_OK == cooler_get_object_temperature( &cooler, &temperature ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " Temperature: %.2f degC\r\n", temperature );
        log_printf( &logger, " Cooler: " );
        if ( COOLER_TEMP_HIGH_LIMIT < temperature )
        {
            if ( COOLER_OK == cooler_set_out_state( &cooler, COOLER_ENABLE ) )
            {
                log_printf( &logger, " Enabled.\r\n\n" );
            }
        }
        else
        {
            if ( COOLER_OK == cooler_set_out_state( &cooler, COOLER_DISABLE ) )
            {
                log_printf( &logger, " Disabled.\r\n\n" );
            }
        }
    }
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}

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.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.Cooler

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.

BATT Boost 2 Click is a compact add-on board designed to extend the battery life of non-rechargeable, primary batteries in low-voltage, low-power applications. This board features the NBM7100A, a coin-cell battery-life booster with adaptive power optimization from Nexperia. The NBM7100A integrates two high-efficiency DC-DC conversion stages and an intelligent learning algorithm to optimize energy usage, allowing it to handle bursts of current up to 200mA without depleting the battery. It features two output terminals: VDH for high pulse load applications and VDP for powering 'Always-ON' components. Communication with the host MCU is achieved via the I2C interface, supporting up to 1MHz clock frequencies.
