MAX31855PMB1 Peripheral Module
General Description
The MAX31855PMB1 peripheral module provides the
necessary hardware to interface the MAX31855 coldjunction compensated thermocouple-to-digital converter
to any system that utilizes PmodK-compatible expansion
ports. The IC performs cold-junction compensation and
digitizes the signal from a thermocouple. Versions of the
IC are available that operate with a K-, J-, N-, T-, R-, or
E-type thermocouple. This module is set up to operate
with a K-type thermocouple. The data is output in a signed
14-bit, SPI-compatible, read-only format. This converter
resolves temperatures to 0.25NC, allows readings as high
as +1800NC and as low as -270NC, and exhibits thermocouple accuracy of Q2NC for temperatures ranging from
-200NC to +700NC for K-type thermocouples.
For full range accuracies, other thermocouple types, and
detailed information regarding operation of the IC, refer to
the MAX31855 IC data sheet.

PIN
SIGNAL
The MAX31855PMB1 peripheral module can plug directly
into a Pmod-compatible port (configured for SPI) through
connector J1. For information on the SPI protocol, refer to
the MAX31855 IC data sheet.

SS
Connector J1 provides connection of the module to
the Pmod host. The pin functions and pin assignments
adhere to the Pmod standard recommended by Digilent.
See Table 1.
SPI Interface
Software and FPGA Code
Example software and drivers are available that execute
directly without modification on several FPGA development boards that support an integrated or synthesized
microprocessor. These boards include the Digilent Nexys
3, Avnet LX9, and Avnet ZEDBoard, although other platforms can be added over time. Maxim provides complete
Xilinx ISE projects containing HDL, Platform Studio, and
SDK projects. In addition, a synthesized bitstream, ready
for FPGA download, is provided for the demonstration
application.

Power supply
The software project (for the SDK) contains several
source files intended to accelerate customer evaluation and design. These include a base application
(maximModules.c) that demonstrates module functionality and uses an API interface (maximDeviceSpecific
Utilities.c) to set and access Maxim device functions
within a specific module.
The source code is written in standard ANSI C format, and
all API documentation including theory/operation, register
description, and function prototypes are documented in
the API interface file (maximDeviceSpecificUtilities.h & .c).
The complete software kit is available for download at
www.maxim-ic.com. Quick start instructions are also
available as a separate document.
