MEMS (sensors)

Hi, I have been trying to get acceleration data from an Adafruit LSM6DSO32 with the STM32 Nucleo board F446RE via i2c. I used the STMems_Standard_C_drivers  (GitHub - STMicroelectronics/lsm6dso32-pid at 308cf0e4de0db190c453f3e211b0c40990f1f39b) in order to set the IMU properly. I also use the STM32CubeIDE app to programme the MCU. Despite many efforts, the Nucleo board is not able to recognise the IMU (I checked that a test buffer that prints whether the device is recognised using the whoami register (please refer to the 7z folder attached)), though I double checked the slave address of the components and the connections (please see attached image (IMG_0605.jpg). Could you please help me solve that problem? You can find enclosed a copy of the STM32CubeIDE project. Best regards, Audric

hello,  i'm working on asm330lhh imu sensor and s32k324 nxp microcontroller.Microcontroller : s32k324imu sensor : ASM330LHHinterface : SPI     Question  1. i want to monitor vibration with this imu sensor. how can i implement code give me vibration monitor example code for asm330lhh. example code i checked but it is for ism330is sensor so i want for asm330lhh.2. can i manullay implement code. if yes then what will be need i mean which parameters needs and  what formulas to be need ? 

Hello,I just wanted to inform you that there is a bug in the ST driver for the LSM6DSV16X v3.0.0, available on Github.Function lsm6dsv16x_fifo_batch_counter_threshold_set is wrongly setting the 2 register values, and for COUNTER_BDR_REG1 it is not ensuring that other bit fields are not changed.I stumbled upon this after some time trying to get the BDR counter threshold interrupt to work in a prototype, and thought to share it here.I changed that function implementation to the code below (basically a copy from the LSM6DSOX driver), and it works fine now:int32_t lsm6dsv16x_fifo_batch_counter_threshold_set(const stmdev_ctx_t *ctx, uint16_t val) { lsm6dsv16x_counter_bdr_reg1_t counter_bdr_reg1; lsm6dsv16x_counter_bdr_reg2_t counter_bdr_reg2; int32_t ret; ret = lsm6dsv16x_read_reg(ctx, LSM6DSV16X_COUNTER_BDR_REG1, (uint8_t *)&counter_bdr_reg1, 1); if (ret == 0) { counter_bdr_reg2.cnt_bdr_th = 0x00FFU & (uint8_t)val; counter_bdr_reg1.cnt_bdr_th = (uint8_t)(

Hello everyone! It's my first time with the Sensortile.box, and I'm still not clear on how to connect via Bluetooth. Inside my Sensortile.box, I have the firmware STSW-MKBOXPRO V1.1.0, and from the ST BLE Sensor application, I'm able to see the box. In order to view the data from the PC, I downloaded the UniCLEO GUI and I'm trying to connect the box to the PC via Bluetooth, but unfortunately, without success :( Does anyone know where I'm going wrong? Thanks.

Hi all, I have been playing around with a SensorTile.Box PRO and have had success in uploading the premade "apps" provided in the app itself. However, when I create a custom app in Expert mode and try to upload it to the unit, the app crashes and the upload fails. What is causing this to happen and what can be done to stop this? Thank you!

 I use STM32F401RE nucleo board to detect tilt. I will use same MEMS sensor (ISM330DLC). Three. But I want to control that sensor in I2C1 Bus.  I know setting SA0 to distinguish SAD. it's only possible to two devices.  I need to control three devices. Help me! Thank you. 

Hi team,Can we connect the STEVAL- MKE001A add on board with STEVAL- MKBOXPRO(It has DIL24 sensor adapter socket) to collect the fusion data from LSM6DSO16IS IMU?

Hi team Is there development board available for Head tracking feature?  I have sensor tile box pro also I am able to get fusion output from that, can I get head tracking output from that?

Hi All,I have a prototype pcb with lis2hh12 + stm32 and i want to configure movement detection into the accell but all informations that i found was about ACT_THS (1Eh) and ACT_DUR (1Fh).In my tests accel does not set INT1 (as desired)... Do anyone know how to make INT1 works accordingly with these THS + DUR ?Here are my accel_init(){lis2hh12_pin_int1_route_t pinValue; /* Wait sensor boot time */HAL_Delay(20);/* Check device ID */lis2hh12_dev_id_get(&dev_ctx, &accelData.whoami); // if (accelData.whoami != LIS2HH12_ID)// {// while (1); /* manage here device not found */// } /* Restore default configuration */lis2hh12_dev_reset_set(&dev_ctx, PROPERTY_ENABLE); do {lis2hh12_dev_reset_get(&dev_ctx, &accelData.rst);} while (accelData.rst); /* Enable Block Data Update */lis2hh12_block_data_update_set(&dev_ctx, PROPERTY_ENABLE);/* Set full scale */lis2hh12_xl_full_scale_set(&dev_ctx, LIS2HH12_2g);/* Configure filtering chain *//* Accele

I need to have a part that goes beyond +/-2000 dps.  The new part LSM6DSV32X does just that (4000 dps).  I'm hoping that it is software/register compatible with the LSM6DSO line of IMUs.  That way I could just replace this part (pin compatible) and update the register for the range of the gyro and leave the remaining code the same.    Is that true?  Can I do this?

I want to test X-Nucleo IKS02A1 board with MEMS Studio. I tried to connect to 4 different boards:-Nucleo F767ZI,-Nucleo F446RE,-Nucleo L053R8 ,-Nucleo WB15CC,I always get the same error:Some device is already connectedWhat can I  do. Is this some linux problem. Do I have to load some special firmware before connecting a board to MEMS studio.   

HelloIf a device using LIS2DW12 is fixed in a fixed position, will it be affected by the gravitational pull of the sun or moon and will the gravitational acceleration of each axis change?

I have a Nucleo-F401RE and want to interface with the STEVAL-MKI209V1. I've tried the TiltSensing2_IIS2ICLX and AccelCalibration2_IIS2ICLX examples but none of them talk to the UNICO-GUI, Mems Studio or TeraTerm UART. Any leads? Especially on what firmware is necessary and wiring?

Spikes are present in the data coming from the LIS2DH12 accelerometer when placed in a casing, but when it is in the open there are no spikes. Attached is an image of the 3 axis data plotted from the accelerometer when placed on the table with casing and rotated. I have also added another plot of the same device on air (no movements). Please advice how to mitigate this issue. Thanks.   

Dear All,I hope this message finds you well.I am reaching out to inquire about the key differences between the LSM6DS0 and LSM6DS3TR-C sensors. Could anyone kindly provide insights into whether the LSM6DS3TR-C offers superior accuracy compared to the LSM6DS0?Your expertise and input on this matter would be greatly appreciated.Thank you for your attention and assistance.Warm regards,Fabrice

Are there any options to reduce the power consumption based upon the configuration I have set so far ?This while still being able to sample at 10Hz 10 bit and using FIFO so that the MCU could stay 'disabled' most of the time.For my project I need the accelerometer to sample @10 bit, 10Hz and 2G  with the lowest power consumption possible. I have used the FIFO to allow the mcu to sleep (for almost 3 seconds) when nothing else needs to be processed. When the watermark of 30 samples is reached I request it to (burst) read\request the values from the FIFO over the SPI interface (8MHz). The request I did get is to have a similar power consumption.The drawn current of the entire setup is about 9.5 uA on average when using the lis2dh12.But when using another accelerometer (bma253) I get about 7 μA total. During the measuring I have seen that the minimal drawn power consumption is increased by 2.5μA. Therefore I determined with the information available that the acceleromet

Hi everyone,I'm working on setting up an SPI connection between the LSM6DS0x and an MCU. I'd like to clarify the pin configuration for a full-fledged SPI setup to ensure I'm getting the most accurate data.Specifically, I have the following questions:SDx and SCx Pin Usage: In SPI mode, how should I configure the SDx (shutdown) and SCx (serial clock) pins on the LSM6DS0x?Full SPI Pin Configuration: Could someone provide a breakdown of all the necessary SPI pins for connection to an MCU (including SCLK, MOSI, MISO, CS)?Any additional tips or recommendations for achieving the most accurate data transfer over SPI would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance for your help!

Is there any application note or other information available about the LPS22HB's low current mode, as enabled by LC_EN in RES_CONF register? Other than reducing power consumption, what does it do and specifically, how does it affect performance?

I want to use 2x LIS2DW12 accelerometers on one PCB.I used i2c to save GPIOs.The i2c address is selected by pulling the SDO/SAO pin HIGH or LOW and it is internally pulled HIGH with approximately 20kohm at 3.6v.If I just connect it to GND then I can expect 180uA leakage.If I use a resistor to pull it down then I calculate that to get a LOW value of 0.2 x 3.6v (0.72V) I need to use a pull down of at least 5Kohms. But this implies a leakage current of 146uA. Which is still not great.Is there another way to connect 2 x LIS2DW12, except using SPI? Can I connect the SDO/SAO to a GPIO and toggle it LOW when I want to read either accelerometer, and leave it floating the rest of the time? (pulled high) 

hello,i'm working on ASM330LHH imu sensor, right now i'm write code for gyroscope. when receving gyroscope data that time output is fluctuating without moving sensor, so how can stop this fluctuation please tell me procedure and most accqurate intilization of gyroscope.  

Hello,I have code working well on the LIS2DH12 that I'm having trouble porting to a LIS2DW12. Unfortunately my new supplier only has boards with the LIS2DW12 and not the H12 so I have to port over my detection code to it. I have a sensor connected to a mechanism that closes shut very quickly and basically just want to get an interrupt when the Z-axis has forceful feedback like this.Using the LIS2DH12, I had the scale set at 16G, a threshold that worked well (0x5a on the INT1 register) and INT1_CFG it to a Z-axis high event, with 50Hz ODR. This worked perfectly.Unfortunately, the LIS2DW12 doesn't seem to have settings similar to detect a Z-axis high event, so I'm trying to use the click interrupt instead, but it's not working. It fails to detect the shut mechanism unless is set it to a 2g scale and then it's too sensitive because I shouldn't get interrupts for slight movements but I do. My settings for the LIS2DW12 are:ctrl1 - 0b01000000 - 50hz low powerctrl4 - 0b01000000

Hello,my question applies to both the LSM6DSO and LSM6DSOX FIFO. if I am enabling the gyro and accel both at the same ODR and also enabling timestamp, I want to know what gets written into the FIFO first. I know I can use the tag register to tell me what that "word" is, but I want to ensure that the sequence the data is written/read from the FIFO will always be the same for a given ODR.I am not locally processing the sensor data but transferring it for processing and I want to minimize the length of my packet if I can guarantee the sequence will always be the same. any help if greatly appreciated. Regards, 

Hi,I'm using ST BLE Sensor combined with ST BLE Box for mine BLE application testing. I'm really pleased with it and I even adopted mine Services/Charactersitics to match the BlueST protocol. I wanted to go further and add custom parameters using ADD CUSTOM DTDL ENTRY. Firstly, I can't find the document resources describing the properites in *.json format. The example one I found, doesn't work either. I used Azure IoT to generate model but adding it failed as well. Please for helpMarcin 

I am using your SDK to use STEVAL-BLUEMIC-1 in an android app and I want to know if it is possible to connect to multiple BlueMic at the same time. In this case, I want the audio streams to be added...

Hi everyone,been trying to nail the issue down for a while and I hope someone can helpI've got an LIS2DW12 connected using I2C to an STM32L476VGT6, and I'm trying to set it up to detect WAKEUPevents.
