Tilt 2 Click

Tilt 2 Click is a tilt sensor switch, which breaks the circuit when tilted to an angle of 45° or when shaken. It is a single-pole-double-throw type of switch (SPDT), which can be operated with up to 24V.

Click library

• Author : MikroE Team
• Date : Dec 2019.
• Type : GPIO type

Software Support

We provide a library for the Tilt2 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.

Library Description

This library contains API for Tilt2 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• Config Object Initialization function.

  void tilt2_cfg_setup ( tilt2_cfg_t *cfg );

• Initialization function.

  TILT2_RETVAL tilt2_init ( tilt2_t ctx, tilt2_cfg_t cfg );

• Click Default Configuration function.

  void tilt2_default_cfg ( tilt2_t *ctx );

Example key functions :

• This function detection tilt.

  uint8_t tilt2_tilt_detection ( tilt2_t *ctx );

Examples Description

This app detection tilt.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initialization device.

void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;
    tilt2_cfg_t cfg;

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info(&logger, "---- Application Init ----\r\n");

    //  Click initialization.

    tilt2_cfg_setup( &cfg );
    TILT2_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    tilt2_init( &tilt2, &cfg );
}

Application Task

Tilt detection, if the tilt is detected, the message is logs on USBUART.

void application_task ( void )
{
    uint8_t tilt;

    tilt = tilt2_tilt_detection( &tilt2 );
    if ( tilt == TILT2_TILT_DETECTION )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " Tilt detection.. \r\n" );
        Delay_ms ( 300 );
    }
}  

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:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.Tilt2

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.
