ISS2MDC High Power Consumption on Idle

Hello,I am evaluating the STMicroelectronics IIS2MDC magnetometer and measuring its supply current using a Joulescope. According to the datasheet, the device should draw approximately ~1.5 µA in idle mode, yet I consistently measure about 450 µA, whi...

Starter Package for NTM88 and MKW01

Hi, I am working on a TPMS project and I have migrated from FXTH to NTM88. With the FXTH I was using the MKW01 board for RF communication, on the NTM88 side, to use the same RF board I need the Starter Package for NTM88 and MKW01. The link can be fou...

Support to build a device with multiple IMUs

Hello All,Apologies in advance for sounding like a noob (that is because I am). I am building a wearable device as a hobby, and I need a 6-axis gyroscope with IMU. Ideally, the device should have more than one IMU, but considering that I have absolut...

LIS2MDL magnetometer with steval_mki181v1

Hello everyone,I'm working with the LIS2MDL sensor (steval_mki181v1) , i made a connection between it and the nrf5340 and I configured it over I2C with pull-up resistors enabled.-VDD -- > VDD-VDDio --> VDD-CS --> VDD -PIN I2C  :: SCL to SCL et SDA to...

IIS2MDC INT/DRDY configuration when unused

Hello,  I am currently using the IIS2MDC in my design with the following configuration: As you can see, I am not using the INT/DRDY pin, so it is left unconnected. However, in idle mode, I am measuring an abnormal current consumption of around 400 µA...

How to Flash FSM+MLC merge in MEMS-studio

I am trying to use the LIS2DUX12 on the STEVAL- MKI109D and use MEMS studio to merge a MLC config I developed and an example FSM config. I have the merged file, but how do I run/test the config onto the board and see if it works?

LSM6DSV16X pitch/roll signal anomaly

Hi,We are using a LSM6DSV16X unit to track pitch and roll in our product based on the quaternions reported by the unit's SFLP algorithm (High Accuracy ODR 120Hz)During the operation and in what seem to be arbitrary times, the pitch and roll signals f...
