Library Description

The library initializes and defines the I2C bus driver.
The library includes the function for reading ADC data and the function for converting ADC value to the percentage of Vacuum and pressure in mBar.
The user also has the function for sensor calibration.

Key functions :

  • void vacuum_calibration() - Sensor calibration
  • uint16_t vacuum_readData() - The function for reads 12 bit ADC data
  • float vacuum_getVoltage() - The function for converting ADC value to pressure data
  • float vacuum_getPercentageOfVacuum() - The function for converting ADC value to percentage of Vacuum

Example description

The application is composed of three sections :

  • System Initialization - Initializes I2C module
  • Application Initialization - Initialization driver init and calibration of the chip to start measuring
  • Application Task - (code snippet) - Reads vacuum percentage that sensor reads
void applicationTask()
{
 mikrobus_logWrite("Vacuum (voltage) : ", _LOG_TEXT);
 Vacuum_volt = vacuum_getVoltage();
 FloatToStr(Vacuum_volt, demoText);
 mikrobus_logWrite(demoText, _LOG_TEXT);
 mikrobus_logWrite(" V", _LOG_LINE);

 mikrobus_logWrite("Percentage of vacuum: ", _LOG_TEXT);
 Vacuum = vacuum_getPercentageOfVacuum();
 FloatToStr(Vacuum, demoText);
 mikrobus_logWrite(demoText, _LOG_LINE);

 mikrobus_logWrite(" ", _LOG_LINE);
 Delay_ms(300);
}

Additional notes and information

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART clickUSB 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.

Wireless Stepper Motor Control

6

This is a simple demonstration of using nRF and Stepper click boards for wirelessly controlling the stepper motor. Master module sends command to the slave (ON, OFF, DIRECTION, 1 step, 1/2 step, 1/4 step and 1/8 step). Upon reception, slave processes this command and drives stepper motor.

Ambient 17 Click

0

Ambient 17 Click is a compact add-on board used to measure the amount of the present ambient light. This board features the TSL2572, a digital-output ambient light sensor with an I2C interface from ams AG. The TSL2572 can detect a wide range of illuminance up to 60klx and provides excellent responsivity close to the human eyes' response. It is designed to control the brightness in various applications based on ambient light availability, brightness for optimum visibility, and energy efficiency. Operation in a temperature range of -30°C to 70°C ensures stable operation under extreme conditions.
