Example Code

Here is an example code snippet in C that demonstrates how to read temperature data from the MLX90614 using the I2C protocol: Adding the MLX90614 to Your Proteus Schematic

#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <avr/io.h>
#include <avr/interrupt.h>
#define MLX90614_I2C_ADDRESS 0x5A
void mlx90614_init() 
  // Initialize I2C communication
  TWBR = 0x18; // 100 kHz
  TWSR = 0x00;
uint16_t mlx90614_read_temperature()  (1 << TWSTA);
  while (!(TWISr & (1 << TWINT)));
  TWIDR = MLX90614_I2C_ADDRESS << 1;
  while (!(TWISr & (1 << TWINT)));
  TWIDR = 0x00; // Register address
  while (!(TWISr & (1 << TWINT)));
  TWICR = (1 << TWEN)
int main() 
  mlx90614_init();
  while (1) 
    uint16_t temperature = mlx90614_read_temperature();
    // Process temperature data
return 0;

This code snippet demonstrates how to initialize the I2C communication, send a read command to the MLX90614, and read temperature data from the device.
