Load cell 2 Click is a weight measurement Click which utilizes a load cell element, in order to precisely measure the weight of an object. The Load Cell 2 Click can be used with the strain gauge type of load cells with external differential reference voltage range from 0.1V to 5V.
We provide a library for the LoadCell2 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.
This library contains API for LoadCell2 Click driver.

void loadcell2_cfg_setup ( loadcell2_cfg_t *cfg );

Load Cell 2 Click is a weight measurement Click which utilizes a load cell element, in order to precisely measure the weight of an object.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Initializes I2C driver and performs the device reset, and performs the device reset, set power on and default configuration. Sets tare the scale, calibrate scale and start measurements.

This is an example which demonstrates the use of Load Cell 2 Click board. Display the measurement of scales in grams [g]. Results are being sent to the Usart Terminal where you can track their changes. All data logs write on USB uart changes for every 1 sec.

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.

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.
