Programming Guide and User Manual
1.2 In-circuit programming
To program the EEPROM the digital interface sends a particular programming sequence and applies the
programming voltage at pin OCD2. In a multiple sensor system the OCD2 can be connected together as each
sensor will receive their individual data set via the separated A
OUT
pin connection. The programming voltage can
be applied to all sensors in parallel. Please find a detailed programming example in the chapter 3.

The recommended serial resistors R
OCD2
and R
VCCIO
are used to avoid a current feedback into the supply and to
avoid possible high floating of the µC supply. The resistors R
OCD2
and R
VCCIO
have to be determined as described
in following formula.
