Library Description

This library allows user to get Proximity output data in the desired resolution and ALS output data calculated to lux. User also can configure the ALS sensitivity by changing the ALS integration time. This library also offers a choice to check a desired interrupt flags to be sure which interrupt is generated. For more details check documentation.

Key functions:

  • T_PROXIMITY9_RETVAL proximity9_readReg( uint8_t regAddr, uint16_t *dataOut ) - This function reads a 16bit data from the desired register.
  • T_PROXIMITY9_RETVAL proximity9_writeReg( uint8_t regAddr, uint16_t dataIn ) - This function writes a 16bit data to the desired register.
  • float proximity9_get_ALS_lux( void ) - This function allows user to get the ALS value calculated to lux.

Examples description

The application is composed of the three sections :

  • System Initialization - Initializes peripherals and pins.
  • Application Initialization - Initializes I2C interface and performs a device configurations.
  • Application Task - (code snippet) - Performs a data reading and interrupt flag checking. Allows data and interrupt flags messages to be showed on the uart terminal. Note : The ALS sensitivity depends on the ALS integration time setting. The longer integration time has higher sensitivity. The Proximity (PS) output data can be set to 12-bit or 16-bit resolution.
void applicationTask()
{
    als_data = proximity9_get_ALS_lux();
    proximity9_readReg( _PROXIMITY9_PS_DATA_REG, &prox_data );
    int_check = proximity9_check_int_flag( _PROXIMITY9_PS_IF_CLOSE_FLAG | _PROXIMITY9_PS_IF_AWAY_FLAG );
    
    FloatToStr( als_data, text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "** ALS : ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " lux", _LOG_LINE );
    
    WordToStr( prox_data, text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( "** PROXIMITY : ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( text, _LOG_LINE );
    
    if (int_check == _PROXIMITY9_PS_IF_CLOSE_FLAG)
    {
        mikrobus_logWrite( "** Object is close!", _LOG_LINE );
        mikrobus_logWrite( "************************************", _LOG_LINE );
        Sound_Play( 1200, 50 );
        Delay_ms( 50 );
        Sound_Play( 1200, 50 );
        Delay_ms( 50 );
        Sound_Play( 1200, 50 );
    }
    if (int_check == _PROXIMITY9_PS_IF_AWAY_FLAG)
    {
        mikrobus_logWrite( "** Object is away!", _LOG_LINE );
        mikrobus_logWrite( "************************************", _LOG_LINE );
        Sound_Play( 1100, 100 );
        Delay_ms( 50 );
        Sound_Play( 1100, 100 );
    }
    if (int_check == _PROXIMITY9_INT_CLEARED)
    {
        mikrobus_logWrite( "************************************", _LOG_LINE );
        Delay_ms( 200 );
    }
}

Additional notes and informations

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.

EPOS Module Click

0

EPOS Module Click is a compact add-on board that provides a low-power modem solution for use in EPOS terminals and telephone-based systems. It is based on the CMX869B, a multi-standard v.32 bis modem from CML Micro, which supports multiple communication protocols. The CMX869B has built-in functions such as DTMF encoding/decoding and a Powersave mode to optimize energy consumption. It also includes a fully isolated telephone interface via the P1200 transformer for reliable communication.

LDC Touch Click

0

LDC Touch Click is a compact add-on board optimized for inductive touch applications. This board features the LDC3114-Q1, a four-channel inductance-to-digital converter for low-power proximity and touch-button sensing from Texas Instruments. It comes with an adjustable sensitivity per input channel and operational power mode selection and measures frequency shifts caused by micro-deflection in the conductive targets formed by button presses. These presses are reported through a compatible I2C interface beside four LED indicators for its visual indication. This Click board™ enables touch button design for human-machine interface and precise linear position sensing of metal targets for automotive, consumer, and industrial applications by allowing access to the raw data representing the inductance value.

Load Cell 5 Click

0

Load Cell 5 Click is a compact add-on board that represents a weigh scale solution. This board features the AD7780, a pin-programmable, low power, 24-bit sigma-delta ΣΔ ADC from Analog Devices. It interfaces directly to the load cell, where the low-level signal from the load cell is amplified by the AD7780’s internal low noise programmable gain amplifier programmed to operate with a gain of 128 or 1. It also has a power-down mode allowing the user to switch off the power to the bridge sensor and power-down the AD7780 when not converting, increasing the product battery life. This Click board™ has many features that make it a perfect solution for safety-critical and weight measurement applications.
