Library Description

The library contains a basic functions for using 6DOF IMU 14 click.

Key functions:

• void c6dofimu14_get_gyro_axis ( c6dofimu14_axis_t *axis ) - Gets GYRO XYZ axis value
• void c6dofimu14_get_accel_axis ( c6dofimu14_axis_t *axis ) - Gets ACCEL XYZ axis value
• float c6dofimu14_get_temperature ( void ) - Gets Temperature value

Examples description

The application is composed of three sections :

• System Initialization - Initializes I2C or SPI module and all necessary GPIO pins
• Application Initialization - Initializes driver inti, configuration module for measurement and cheeks communication with the module.
• Application Task - Reads Accel, Gyro and Temperature data and logs data to USB UART every 1.5 second.
• Note - For more characteristics and information, you should see the datasheet of the sensor.

{
    float temperature;
    c6dofimu14_axis_t accel;
    c6dofimu14_axis_t gyro;

    mikrobus_logWrite( "  ", _LOG_LINE );
    
    // ACCEL DATA
    c6dofimu14_get_accel_axis( &accel );
    FloatToStr( accel.x, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " >> Accel: X: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_TEXT );
    FloatToStr( accel.y, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Y: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_TEXT );
    FloatToStr( accel.z, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Z: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_LINE );
    
    // GYRO DATA
    c6dofimu14_get_gyro_axis( &gyro );
    FloatToStr( gyro.x, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " >> Gyro: X: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_TEXT );
    FloatToStr( gyro.y, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Y: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_TEXT );
    FloatToStr( gyro.z, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Z: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _LOG_LINE );
    
    // TEMPERATURE
    temperature = c6dofimu14_get_temperature( );
    FloatToStr( temperature, demo_text );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " >> Temperature: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( demo_text, _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.
