Library Description
The library contains basic functions for working with the Force 3 click.
Key functions:
uint16_t force3_read_raw_data( ) - Read 12bit raw dataExamples description
The application is composed of three sections :
void application_task ( )
{
uint16_t raw_data;
char demo_text[ 20 ];
raw_data = force3_read_raw_data();
IntToStr( raw_data, demo_text );
mikrobus_logWrite( "Raw data: ", _LOG_TEXT );
mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_LINE );
if ( ( raw_data > 15 ) && ( raw_data <= 200 ) )
{
mikrobus_logWrite( ">> Light touch", _LOG_LINE );
}
else if ( ( raw_data > 200 ) && ( raw_data <= 500 ) )
{
mikrobus_logWrite( ">> Light squeeze", _LOG_LINE );
}
else if ( ( raw_data > 500 ) && ( raw_data <= 800 ) )
{
mikrobus_logWrite( ">> Medium squeeze", _LOG_LINE );
}
else if ( raw_data > 800 )
{
mikrobus_logWrite( ">> Big squeeze", _LOG_LINE );
}
mikrobus_logWrite( "----------------------", _LOG_LINE );
Delay_ms( 1500 );
}

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.
