Library Description

Library initializes and defines UART driver and functions witch offer a choice to providing direct XYZ color coordinates consistent with the CIE 1931.

  1. Standard Observer color coordinates. It also maps the XYZ coordinates to the x, y (Y) of the 2-dimensional color gamut and scales the coordinates to the CIE 1976 u’v’ coordinate system. The library provides accurate Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) measurements and provides color point deviation from the black body curve for white light color in the delta u’ v’ coordinate system. Check documentation for more details.


Key functions:

  • void spectral_getColor_Data(uint8_t *rsp, uint8_t *) - Reads calibrated X, Y, and Z color data.
  • void spectral_getXYsmall_Data(uint8_t *rsp, uint8_t *xyData) - Reads calibrated x and y for CIE 1931 color gamut.
  • uint8_t spectral_getLUX_Data(uint8_t *rsp) - Reads calibrated LUX value from the sensor.
  • uint8_t spectral_getCCT_Data(uint8_t *rsp) - Reads calibrated CCT value from the sensor.
  • void spectral_getUV_Data(uint8_t *rsp, uint16_t *uvData) - Reads calibrated u’, v’ and u, v for CIE 1976 color gamut.

Examples Description

The demo application is composed of three sections:

  • System Initialization - Initializes all necessary GPIO pins, UART used for
    the communcation with Spectral and UART used for infromation logging.
  • Application Initialization - Initializes driver, reset module and sends
    command for the default module configuration.
  • Application Task - (code snippet) - Sends the command to start reading data.
    Then logs to USBUART, six read values every 1 second.
void applicationTask()
{
 spectral_process();

 spectral_cmdSingle(&cmdData[0]);
 spectral_getData(&dataBuffer[0],&readData[0]);
 IntToStr(readData[0],text);
 mikrobus_logWrite( "-- X value:", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );

 IntToStr(readData[1],text);
 mikrobus_logWrite( "-- Y value:", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );

 IntToStr(readData[2],text);
 mikrobus_logWrite( "-- Z value:", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );

 IntToStr(readData[3],text);
 mikrobus_logWrite( "-- NIR value:", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );

 IntToStr(readData[4],text);
 mikrobus_logWrite( "-- D value:", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );

 IntToStr(readData[5],text);
 mikrobus_logWrite( "-- C value:", _LOG_TEXT );
 mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );

 mikrobus_logWrite( "---------------------", _LOG_LINE );

 Delay_1sec();
}

Along with the demo application timer initialization functions are provided. Note that the timer is configured acording to the default develoment system and MCUs, changing the system or MCU may require an update of the timer init and timer ISR functions.

mikroE Libraries used in the example:

  • String
  • Conversions
  • UART

Additional notes and information

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.

Power/Reset click

5

Power/Reset Click is equipped with two capacitive touch pads on a single click boardâ„¢. It can be activated by touch, and unlike the mechanical button, the capacitive touch button lasts much longer, it is not prone to damage and wear over time and it is very reliable.

Thermo 3 click

5

Thermo 3 click carries TMP102, a digital temperature sensor IC with a tiny footprint of only 1.6mm x 1.6mm. The click is designed to run on a 3.3V power supply only. It communicates with the target MCU through mikroBUS I2C pins (SCL, SDA), and an additional Alert pint (INT on the default mikroBUS configuration).
