Eagle - Wiring up a DM Temperature Sensor

This guide is to be read in conjunction with the DM Temperature Sensor Datasheet.

Digital Matter manufacture and supply a Temperature/Humidity (Ambient) I2C Sensor, and an I2C Temperature Probe. Check the above data sheet for specifications.

Ambient Sensor (Temperature and Humidity Sensor) 

I2C Temperature Probe



Connecting the Sensors

Please note, Wires will need to be inserted through the gland in the housing first, then wired into the PCB.

On the board, you will see a strip of screw terminals, 4 of them are used for the I2C Bus.

  1. 3.3V Out
  2. Sensor Clock
  3. Sensor Data
  4. Grounded

The connections for each sensor are as follows:

Note: The wires are inserted into the front hole next to the label. unscrew the clamp section of the screw by rotating counter-clockwise, then insert wire.


When configuring system parameters for the Falcon (or other DM devices), to read from this sensor, ensure readings for "Ambient Sensor" are enabled.
