Posted on April 08, 2018 at 08:59I need a sensor that is able to differentiate between distance 20mm and 23mm with no error.i.e. the accuracy and stability must be high (within 1mm only)which sensor should I use VL6180 or VL53L or something else?
Posted on April 24, 2018 at 13:46I understand the older vl6180x works underwater, but I could not find any information regarding the VL53L1. Anyone tried it? If so, how well does it work?I'm looking mainly for proximity detection / distance measurem...
Posted on April 25, 2018 at 21:56Looking at the data sheet for the VL6180X (p49-50), the registers are listed with their 'offset' address.Does this mean I have to add a base address to the offset addresses? If so, where is that found in the document...
Posted on April 30, 2018 at 12:25I am seeing some curious behaviour with the LSM303DLHC sensor. I am using the magnetometer only, reading at 200Hz. My software responds to interrupts on the DRDY pin by reading six bytes starting from register OUT_X_...
Posted on April 27, 2018 at 09:15Please tell me the details on Interrupt and FIFO settings in ISM330DLC. I need to store the Gyroscope and Accelerometer data into the FIFO . Please tell me what changes i need to do in kernel source code of ism330dlc...
Posted on April 16, 2018 at 12:37I am using LIS2DH12 on my custom designed board for a BLE application. I noticed that the PCB had a huge current draw than expected and on further digging found the accelerometer to be drawing the excessive current w...
Posted on April 25, 2018 at 03:31Quote the datasheet:'Temperature data is stored inside TEMP_OUT_L (05h), TEMP_OUT_H (06h) as two’s complement data in 12-bit format, right-justified.'So if the sensor value is reading 0 and the temperature drops by...
Posted on April 23, 2018 at 21:33Hi, I downloaded the Unico 6.0.0.0 and selected the STEVAL-MKI179V1 for LIS2DW12 sensor. I am using the motherboard STEVAL-MKI109V3 and i getting the same error. How to solve firmware issue for this motherboard?I hav...
Posted on April 24, 2018 at 17:11I am trying to configure an interrupt on a LIS2DH12 in order to detect when the device is being hit.I tried just configuring one axes to generate the interrupt. But Interrupt is never being fired (Or it is fired cons...
Posted on April 24, 2018 at 13:34Hello to allI'm trying to use MotionFX sensor fusion library in my application with STM32F4.It seems to me that the 9X mode works good enough. But I'm confused about my results during sensor rotation around 3 axis:1)...
