The perforation between the USB controller and TMP118 FPC connector section is labeled on both sides for pin connections. Once the sensor section is detached from the controller section, the user can interface with the sensor section in two different ways:
- Soldering wires or 0.1'' header connectors: With this approach, the user has access to all pins of the device.
Note: Pullup resistors and protection diodes are on the controller section. Thus, when interfacing with other controller boards, TI recommends to verify that pullup resistors and protection circuitry are present on any controller board for safe and proper functionality.
