:name: JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant Temperature Sensor
:relevant-api: sensor_interface
Get ambient temperature from a JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensor (polling & trigger
mode).
Overview
********
This sample application periodically (0.5 Hz) measures the ambient
temperature. The result is written to the console.
If triggered measurements are enabled the sample initializes and
maintains a |plusminus| 2 |deg| C window around the current temperature.
When the temperature moves outside the window an alert is given, and the
window is moved to center on the new temperature.
Requirements
************
The sample requires a JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensor. The
sample is configured to use the MCP9808 sensor.
The MCP9808 digital temperature sensor converts temperatures between -20 |deg|
C and +100 |deg| C to a digital word with |plusminus| 0.5 |deg| C (max.)
accuracy. It is I2C compatible and supports up to 16 devices on the bus.
Wiring
*******
The MCP9808, which is a JEDEC JC 42.4 compliant temperature sensor, is
available in a discrete component form but it is much easier to
use it mounted on a breakout board. We used the Adafruit `MCP9808
Sensor`_ breakout board.

Building and Running
********************
After providing a devicetree overlay that specifies the sensor I2C bus
and alert GPIO, build this sample app using:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/sensor/jc42
:board: particle_xenon
:goals: build flash
Sample Output
=============
Note that in the capture below output from the trigger callback and the
main thread are interleaved.
