LIS3DH - Motion and crash detection

Posted on February 26, 2018 at 12:02Hello allMy goal is to use two INT pins to generate two interrupts in a device which will be used in a car. INT2 will be pulled when a crash of the car is detected and INT1 when the car moves.Here is my init setti...

Resolved! LIS3DH and LSM9DS1 accelerometer comparison

Posted on April 13, 2018 at 14:16Hello,I am trying to compare LIS3DH and LSM9DS1 (accelerometer part) and I am suprised by the result:The LIS3DH has the configuration: CTRL1: 0x67 (ODR = 200Hz, LPen=0, ) CTRL4: 0xA8 (BDU, 8g, HR)   => sampling frequ...

LISD2E12 INT1_THS not changing tilt threshold

Posted on February 23, 2018 at 21:28 The INT1_THS register value does not seem to change the threshold at which an event is triggered. I can read and write the INT1_THS(0x32) so I know my writes are working. I poll the INT1_SRC register and watch t...

LSM9DS1 and LSM6DS3 accelerometer resolution

Posted on December 01, 2015 at 22:29HiIm having some trouble confirming whether the resolution from the accelerometer in the LSM9DS1 and also LSM6DS3 is actually 16 bits ?The datasheet for both sensors say the output resolution is indeed 16 bits, bu...

See anything wrong with bit bang driver for HTS221??

Posted on April 03, 2018 at 04:41I am writing a bit banging SPI driver for the HTS221 with no success,I drive the SDO data just before the falling clk endand I read the SDI data on the rising clk edge. I have included a screen capture of the Saleae ...

LSM303C magnetometer interrupt capabilities

Posted on April 12, 2018 at 10:46Dear all,referring to the LSM303C data sheet, I'd like to know what exactly is to be understood with 'The system can generate an interrupt signal for ... magnetic field detection'.I am interested in an application wh...

LIS3DH spike in acceleration value

Posted on April 10, 2018 at 17:13I have been doing some testings recently with the LIS3DH accelerometer to measure machine vibration, and I have come across 2 things. I am using the accelerometer to sample 512 points at a 1.1Khz sampling rate. I hav...

Battery life STEVAL-STLKT01V1 SensorTile

Posted on April 04, 2018 at 12:09Hi, I have the sensortile development kit, I wanted to test the battery life without soldering the sensortile to the cradle board, without using USB charge and with the accelerometer always active. Does anyone who ha...

VL6180X ECE threshold calculation

Posted on April 10, 2018 at 20:41Trying to figure out how to apply the Early Convergence Estimate value for the VL6180X proximity sensor.Design Tip DT0034 gives some information, but also populates the equations with some apparent magic numbers, and...
