1.0 Introduction
The LM95235 Evaluation Board is used together
with the National Semiconductor SensorEval
software (provided in the kit), and with a USB cable
(not provided in the kit), and with an external
personal computer (PC). Power to the LM95235
Evaluation Board is provided by the +5 VDC line of
the USB connection. No external power supply or
signal sources are required for operation of the
LM95235 evaluation board.
The block diagram below describes the LM95235
Evaluation Board itself. The USB input provides the
+5.0 VDC power to the board, which is regulated
down to 3.3 VDC to power the IC’s. The EEPROM
is programmed at the factory with a unique ID code
for this particular board. When the USB cable is
plugged in, the PC interrogates the USB devices and
can identify this device as the LM95235 Evaluation
Board.
Before connecting the PC to the LM95235
The microcontroller on the board provides the serial
SMBus clock (SMBCLK), provides the SMBus data
(SMBDAT) signal, and relays the information from
the LM95235 to the PC via the USB lines.
evaluation board through the USB cable, the PC is
first turned on and allowed to go through its boot-up
procedure. The user installs and initiates the
SensorEval software. See Section 4.0 for details.
The block in the lower right of the Block Diagram
shows the signals that are available to probe by the
user for the LM95235 device on the board.
After the SensorEval software is running, the user
can connect the USB cable first to the computer and
then to the LM95235 Evaluation Board.
The PC should be able to recognize the board and
the user simply selects the LM95235 Eval Board
radio button.

2.0 Quick Start
1. Install the CD into the CD drive of the computer
and install the SensorEval software (see Section
4.0).
2. Hookup the USB cable between the PC or
notebook computer and the LM95235EVAL
board as shown in Quick Start Diagram (See
Section 2.1).
3. Run the SensorEval software clicking the icon
on the desktop. The first screen after the
installation will look like this:
Select the LM95235 Evaluation Board.
Click OK.
5. The next screen will look like this:
If not, select “Another Device”. The next screen
should look like this:
Make sure that “4C” is selected in the upper left
box labeled “I2C Addr”. Select “All Regs” in the
“Read Cont” box to read all of the registers,
including the temperature registers continuously.
Select LM95235 and click on Open button.
4. The next screen (first screen after the first run of
the program) will look like this:

6.
The Screen should look like this:
.
The user can also select the 3904 diode or the
processor thermal diode called “90 nm”.
Local (on-chip) and remote temperatures should read
continuously. The user can experiment with the
different settings of Address BF.
7. If the user clicks the 06-FF tab the next screen
will look like this:
The user can experiment with the Mask settings. Also the
user can change the conversion rate. The next screen
shows the possibilities for the Conversion Rate.

8. If the user clicks on the Start Plot button a graph
box will appear and will graph the temperature. An
example is shown below
9. If the user selects the Start Log button the following
screen will appear. The user then enters the filename that
he chooses to log the data into.

Power to the LM95235 Evaluation Board is taken
from the USB 5-Volt line. This +5 VDC is the input
to the on-board LM2950 low dropout voltage
regulator, which regulates the output voltage to +3.3
VDC. This output voltage powers the LM95235, the
on-board microcontroller, and the EEPROM chip
where the board ID information is stored.
3.0 Functional Description
The LM95235 Evaluation Board, along with the
SensorEval Software, provides the system designer
with a convenient way to learn about the operation of
the LM95235 Temperature Sensor chip. The user
simply has to install the SensorEval software on his
PC, run it, connect the USB cable from the PC to the
Evaluation Board, and the user can read the
temperatures. It’s that simple! The user doesn’t have
to provide any power or external signals to the
evaluation board.
The microcontroller provides the SMBus Clock
(SMBCLK) signal and the SMBus Data (SMBDAT)
signal to the LM95235 chip. This communication
between the LM95235 and the PC USB data lines is
controlled by the microcontroller. For all of the
details of this communication protocol see the latest
