This library and guide has been deprecated. We have a newer, better library and guide here https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-mcp9808-precision-i2c-temperature-sensor-guide/

Do you need accurate temperature measurements in a project?  Consider using the MCP9808 precision temperature sensor with up to 0.25 degrees Celsius accuracy!  The MCP9808 will read temperature and make it available over an I2C connection.  With the MCP9808 Python library you can now use the MCP9808 precision temperature sensor with your Raspberry Pi or BeagleBone Black project!

Before you get started make sure your Raspberry Pi is running the latest Raspbian or Occidentalis operating system, and your BeagleBone Black is running the latest official Debian operating system.  It will also help to familiarize yourself with the MCP9808 sensor by reading its Arduino guide.
