Accel 18 Click

Accel 18 Click demo application is developed using the NECTO Studio, ensuring compatibility with mikroSDK's open-source libraries and tools. Designed for plug-and-play implementation and testing, the demo is fully compatible with all development, starter, and mikromedia boards featuring a mikroBUS™ socket.

Software Support

Example Description

This example application showcases ability of the device to read axes values on detected interrupt.

Example Libraries

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Accel18

Example Key Functions

• accel18_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

void accel18_cfg_setup ( accel18_cfg_t *cfg );

• accel18_init Initialization function.

err_t accel18_init ( accel18_t *ctx, accel18_cfg_t *cfg );

• accel18_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.

err_t accel18_default_cfg ( accel18_t *ctx );

• accel18_read_axes Accel data reading.

err_t accel18_read_axes ( accel18_t *ctx, accel18_axes_t *axes_data );

• accel18_set_range Set range configuration.

err_t accel18_set_range ( accel18_t *ctx, uint8_t range_macro );

• accel18_get_interrupt_1 Get interrupt 1 pin state.

uint8_t accel18_get_interrupt_1 ( accel18_t *ctx );

Application Init

Initialization of comunication modules(SPI/I2C, UART) and additional two interrupt pins. Then configures device and sets 8g range and 10 Hz data rate, with interrupt enabled.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    accel18_cfg_t accel18_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    accel18_cfg_setup( &accel18_cfg );
    ACCEL18_MAP_MIKROBUS( accel18_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    err_t init_flag  = accel18_init( &accel18, &accel18_cfg );
    if ( ( I2C_MASTER_ERROR == init_flag ) || ( SPI_MASTER_ERROR == init_flag ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Application Init Error. " );
        log_info( &logger, " Please, run program again... " );

        for ( ; ; );
    }

    if ( accel18_default_cfg ( &accel18 ) )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Default configuration. " );
        log_info( &logger, " Please, run program again... " );
        for ( ; ; );
    }

    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Whenever interrupt is detected checks interrupt status for data ready, and then reads x, y, and z axes, calculates value and logs result.

void application_task ( void )
{
    accel18_axes_t axes_data;
    if ( !accel18_get_interrupt_1( &accel18 ) )
    {
        // Check interrupts
        uint8_t interrupt_state = 0;
        accel18_byte_read( &accel18, ACCEL18_REG_INTERRUPT_STATUS, &interrupt_state );
        if ( interrupt_state & ACCEL18_INT_ACQ_EN )
        {
            // Axis read
            accel18_read_axes( &accel18, &axes_data );
            log_printf( &logger, " > X[g]: %.2f\r\n", axes_data.x );
            log_printf( &logger, " > Y[g]: %.2f\r\n", axes_data.y );
            log_printf( &logger, " > Z[g]: %.2f\r\n", axes_data.z );
            log_printf( &logger, "**************************\r\n" );
        }
        // Clear interrupts
        if ( interrupt_state )
        {
            accel18_byte_write( &accel18, ACCEL18_REG_INTERRUPT_STATUS, ~interrupt_state );
        }
    }
}

Application Output

This Click board can be interfaced and monitored in two ways:

• Application Output - Use the "Application Output" window in Debug mode for real-time data monitoring. Set it up properly by following this tutorial.
• UART Terminal - Monitor data via the UART Terminal using a USB to UART converter. For detailed instructions, check out this tutorial.

Additional Notes and Information

The complete application code and a ready-to-use project are available through the NECTO Studio Package Manager for direct installation in the NECTO Studio. The application code can also be found on the MIKROE GitHub account.
