Library Description

TThe library contains a function for reading the linear position of the magnet.

Key functions:

• uint16_t magneticlinear_readData() - Functions reads Magnetics Linear data

Examples description

The application is composed of the three sections :

• System Initialization - Initializes SPI init and sets CS pin as OUTPUT
• Application Initialization - Initialization driver init
• Application Task - (code snippet) - Reads Magnetics linear data and this data logs to USBUART every 200ms.

void applicationTask()
{
    uint16_t magneticData;
    char demoText[ 50 ];
    
    magneticData = magneticlinear_readData();
    IntToStr(magneticData, demoText);
    mikrobus_logWrite(" Magnetic Linear data : ", _LOG_TEXT);
    mikrobus_logWrite(demoText, _LOG_LINE);
    
    mikrobus_logWrite("________________", _LOG_LINE);
    Delay_ms( 200 );
}

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.
