Using the temperature & humidity sensor with H/W I2C

We tested to read si702x sensor with H/W I2C.

Open /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf file and add drivername using following syntax:

blacklist ioboard_bh1780
blacklist ioboard_bmp180
blacklist ioboard_keyled

Reboot

sudo reboot

Compile & Run

gcc -o ex_si702x ex_si702x.c

odroid@odroid:~$ sudo ./ex_si702x
Temperature : 28.64 °C
Humidity : 43.62 %
