Si70XX Sensor#
Introduction#
The Si70xx sensor driver offers a set of functions for interacting with the Si70xx sensor series over the I2C bus. It facilitates the integration of the sensor by providing access to features such as temperature and humidity measurements, firmware revision retrieval, and device presence detection. All Si70xx functions are managed through the generic driver.
Usage#
Once the I2C peripheral is initialized and configured, the Si70xx sensor will be ready for use. The common functions include the following:
Initialize the Si70xx sensor:sl_si91x_si70xx_init
Check whether an Si7006/13/20/21 is present on the I2C bus:sl_si91x_si70xx_is_present
Measure relative humidity and temperature from the Si7006/13/20/21 sensor:sl_si91x_si70xx_measure_rh_and_temp
Read firmware revision from the Si7006/13/20/21 sensor:sl_si91x_si70xx_get_firmware_revision
Initiate a Si70xx software reset using the appropriate command:sl_si91x_si70xx_reset
The following sequence should be followed when using the Si70xx sensor:
Initialize the Si70xx sensor: Use sl_si91x_si70xx_init before using the other functions.
Check Sensor Presence: Optionally verify if a Si70xx sensor is present on the I2C bus using sl_si91x_si70xx_is_present.
Measure Relative Humidity and Temperature: Use sl_si91x_si70xx_measure_rh_and_temp to obtain measurements from the sensor.
Read the firmware revision: Retrieve the firmware version with sl_si91x_si70xx_get_firmware_revision.
Initiate a software reset: Perform a software reset on the sensor if needed using sl_si91x_si70xx_reset.
See the Function Documentation for the usage information of all the APIs in detail.
