LSM6DSOX INT1 / INT2 both Interrupt

[BenG142]

Hello,

I'm trying to set up the two interrupts on the LSM6DSOX, INT1 and INT2 to indicate Single and Double Tap events, respectively.

I'm able to make both events trigger their respective interrupt, but would like them to be completely separate.

I think I need to implement a delay on the Single Tap, to ensure it doesn't operate under double tap condition - it currently operates twice for a double tap!

Is there a way I can do this inside the LSM6DSO, or must I differentiate the interrupts in my microcontroller?

WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_CTRL1_XL, B01100000 );              //Set ODR to 417Hz?
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_CTRL4_C, B00100000 );               //Enable Tap on X,Y,Z
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_TAP_CFG0, B00001110 );              //Enable Tap on X,Y,Z
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_TAP_CFG1, B00001000 );              //Set X Threshold
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_TAP_CFG2, B10001000 );              //Set Y Threshold + Enable Interrupts
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_TAP_THS_6D, B10001000 );            //Set Z Threshold
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_INT_DUR2, B01111111 );              //Set Duration/Quiet/Shock
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_WAKE_UP_THS, B10000000 );           //Set Wake_UP_THS for Single/Double Tap
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_MD1_CFG, B00000000 );
    WriteRegister( LSM6DSOX_MD2_CFG, B01001000 );

Hi @BenG142​ ,

Unfortunately it is not possible to do this inside LSM6DSOX, so I suggest you to differentiate the interrupts in your microcontroller.

Thank you Frederica,

Looking into writing to FIFO as a pre-conditioner!

Appreciate your reply,
