Click library

  • Author : Luka Filipovic
  • Date : May 2021.
  • Type : I2C/SPI type

Software Support

We provide a library for the AirFlow 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 from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for AirFlow Click driver.

Standard key functions :

  • airflow_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

    void airflow_cfg_setup ( airflow_cfg_t *cfg );
  • airflow_init Initialization function.

    err_t airflow_init ( airflow_t *ctx, airflow_cfg_t *cfg );
  • airflow_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.

    err_t airflow_default_cfg ( airflow_t *ctx );

Example key functions :

  • airflow_reset_device Reset device.

    void airflow_reset_device ( airflow_t *ctx )
  • airflow_get_differential_pressure Reads differential pressure.

    err_t airflow_get_differential_pressure ( airflow_t *ctx, float *pressure )
  • airflow_get_atmospheric_pressure Reads atmospheric pressure and temperature.

    err_t airflow_get_atmospheric_pressure ( airflow_t *ctx, float *pressure, float *temperature );

Example Description

This example showcases ability for device to read differential pressure, atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initialize host communication modules (UART, I2C/SPI). Read electric signature data from device and logs it to terminal.


void application_init ( void ) 
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    airflow_cfg_t airflow_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * 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 );
    Delay_ms ( 100 );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    airflow_cfg_setup( &airflow_cfg );
    AIRFLOW_MAP_MIKROBUS( airflow_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    err_t init_flag  = airflow_init( &airflow, &airflow_cfg );
    if ( ( init_flag == I2C_MASTER_ERROR ) || ( init_flag == SPI_MASTER_ERROR ) ) 
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Application Init Error. " );
        log_info( &logger, " Please, run program again... " );

        for ( ; ; );
    }

    airflow_reset_device( &airflow );

    if ( airflow_default_cfg ( &airflow ) < 0 )
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Read" );
        log_info( &logger, " Please, run program again... " );
        for ( ; ; );
    }
    else
    {
        log_printf( &logger, "Firmware version: %d.%d\r\n", ( int16_t )airflow.major_fw_ver, ( int16_t )airflow.minor_fw_ver );
        //part number
        log_printf( &logger, "Part number: " );
        for ( uint8_t pn = 0; pn < 11; pn++ )
            log_printf( &logger, "%c", airflow.part_number[ pn ] );
        log_printf( &logger, "\r\n" );
        //lot number
        log_printf( &logger, "Lot number: " );
        for ( uint8_t pn = 0; pn < 7; pn++ )
            log_printf( &logger, "%c", airflow.lot_number[ pn ] );
        log_printf( &logger, "\r\n" );
        //pressure range
        log_printf( &logger, "Pressure range: %d\r\n", airflow.pressure_range );
        //output type
        log_printf( &logger, "Output type: %c\r\n", airflow.output_type );
        //scale factor
        log_printf( &logger, "Scale factor: %d\r\n", airflow.scale_factor );
        //calibration id
        log_printf( &logger, "Calibration ID: %s\r\n", airflow.calibration_id );
        //week
        log_printf( &logger, "Week: %d\r\n", ( int16_t )airflow.week );
        //year
        log_printf( &logger, "Year: %d\r\n", ( int16_t )airflow.year );
        //sequence number
        log_printf( &logger, "Sequence number: %d\r\n", airflow.sequence_number );
    }
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Reads differential pressure in Pa, atmospheric pressure in mBar and ambient temperature in C every 500ms and logs read data.


void application_task ( void ) 
{    
    float pressure_data, temperature_data;

    airflow_get_differential_pressure( &airflow, &pressure_data );
    log_printf( &logger, "Differential pressure[Pa]: %.2f\r\n", pressure_data );
    airflow_get_atmospheric_pressure( &airflow, &pressure_data, &temperature_data );
    log_printf( &logger, "Atmospheric pressure[mBar]: %.2f\r\nTemperature[degC]: %.2f\r\n", pressure_data, temperature_data );
    log_printf( &logger, "***********************************************************\r\n" );
    Delay_ms ( 500 );
}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.AirFlow

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. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.

ROTARY O Click

0

Rotary Click carries a 15-pulse incremental rotary encoder with detents, surrounded by a ring of 16 orange LEDs. It’s a perfect solution for adding a precision input knob to your design. The encoder outputs A and B signals (out of phase to each other); the knob also acts as a push-button which sends an interrupt to the target board MCU. The LED ring is controlled through SPI lines (CS, SCK, MISO, MOSI). Rotary Click can be used with either a 3.3V or 5V power supply.
