Force 2 Click is a mikroBUS™ add-on board with circuitry for implementing Honeywell’s FSS1500NGT Series force sensors into your projects (with a single zone force sensing resistor included with the click).
We provide a library for the Force2 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.
This library contains API for Force2 Click driver.
void force2_cfg_setup ( force2_cfg_t *cfg );
FORCE2_RETVAL force2_init ( force2_t *ctx, force2_cfg_t *cfg );
force2_data_t force2_generic_read ( force2_t *ctx );
This application is used to measure the pressure force.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Initalizes ADC driver, sets ADC channel and makes an initial log.
This is an example that shows the capabilities of the Force 2 click by taking measurements from the device and displaying it via USART terminal.
The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.
Other mikroE Libraries used in the example:
Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
