MEMS (sensors)

Hi,In my project, I would like to connect multiple ILPS22QS pressure sensors (from 8 up to 256 units) to a single controller. I saw the dynamic addressing command supported by I3C ENTDAA. However, I also saw the provisional ID is not arbitrary. GETPID only returns 2 values depending on SDO pin.Therefore, I wonder if it is possible to use a single micro-controller to communicate with multiple (>2) ILPS22QS pressure sensors.Thank you,Jinhao

Hi ST team,I would like to know if I need to calibrate my sensor or if you can tell me a method to validate my X, Y and Z outputs.I'm getting the following values in a test but how can I know if my method is correct? I was reading and at the current accelerometer position X and Y are should be 0g and Z should be 1g.Note: My results are in mg.Position:

We are using the STEVAL-STWINBX1 at a CNC machine to gather vibration data. We are using the fp-sns-datalog2 HSDatalog Python framework to record the data over USB. Unfortunately, the data seems to always get corrupted in longer measurements (>5 min).In these cases, the dataframes get corrupted and it seems as though the axis of the accelerometer are switched aroundThe following code is used to read the raw measurement files:from st_hsdatalog.HSD.HSDatalog import HSDataloghsd_factory = HSDatalog()hsd = hsd_factory.create_hsd(acq_folder)sensor = HSDatalog.get_sensor(hsd, sensor_name)stwin_data = HSDatalog.get_dataframe(hsd, sensor)[0]and the resulting dataframe shows the corrupt data - in the beginning, everything is ok but in the end, the timestamps are invalid and it seems as though the axis are switched:

Hello,As part of my master thesis, I am working with the onboard accelerometer of the STM32F411E discovery board. After day of effort I was able to find a code that would run without errors. It is one of the demonstration codes from f4 board master. I am trying to understand how to change the scale to the current values. Right now the value goes from almost +-16000 and I would like to understand how to change this to have more control over my resolution. I read in the sensor datasheet that we are able to change this from +-2g all the way to +-16g, could anyone explain how? thank you in advance.below is the main file code:/********************************************************************************* @file Demonstrations/Src/main.c* @author MCD Application Team* @brief This demo describes how to use accelerometer to control mouse on* PC.*****************************************************************************

I use LIS2MDL and LSM6DSO sensors (with MotionMC and MotionEC libraries) for getting true north direction. I tested this configuration on IKS01A3 board and it works. But on my custom board, I'm having trouble with getting true north direction. After calibration the resulting azimuth differs from the true one by 70-150 degrees. Tilting the sensor plane by 5 degrees or more in the X or Y axes also affects the observed azimuth. Could this be due to incorrect routing of my custom board? I'm concerned about I2C line vias. Could vias be a source of parasitic magnetic induction? Power is also routing under the LIS2MDL (pic2). Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Posted on April 20, 2017 at 17:40Hi,I am using the LSM6DSL with a SMT32L476. My question is in relation to the single and double tap generated events (on INT2 pins).1�) When I single tap on the sensor I have an interruption on INT2. If I read TAP_SRC (1Ch) I have :Z_TAP:1 Y_TAP:0 X_TAP:0 TAP_SIGN:1 DOUBLE_TAP:0 SINGLE_TAP:1 TAP_IA:0Note : I would expect TAP_IA to 1 but anyway it is working.2�) When I double tap on the sensor I have 2 interruptions on INT2. If I read TAP_SRC for each interruption, I have :- first one : Z_TAP:1 Y_TAP:0 X_TAP:0 TAP_SIGN:1 DOUBLE_TAP:0 SINGLE_TAP:1 TAP_IA:0- second one : Z_TAP:1 Y_TAP:0 X_TAP:0 TAP_SIGN:1 DOUBLE_TAP:1 SINGLE_TAP:0 TAP_IA:1Is there any way by configuring (correctly) the sensor to not have 2 interruptions for a double tap ?Or If the TAP_IA for a single tap was equal to 1 I would be able to know if it was a single Tap or a double tap (even with the

Hi:We are trying to use LIS2DE12 motion interrupt to wake up a MCU as well as no motion interrupt so MCU can sleep.Issue #1: Unexpected Interrupt from LIS2DE12 after initialized to detect a motionLIS is configured as the following setting:1. CTRL_REG1=0x1F: ODR=1Hz, Z & Y & X all enabled. LPen=1. 2. CTRL_REG2=0xF1:Again manual doesn't give detailed description especially to the HPF mode. b7b6=11 means autoreset on interrupt event. b5b4=11 means cutoff frequency at 0.002Hz at ODR=1Hz. b0=1 means HP on Interrupt 1.3. CTRL_REG3=0x40: b6=1 means IA1 on INT1.4. CTRL_REG4=0x00: Continuousdata update, scale at +/-2g. Also I2C is chosen and self-test is disabled.5. CTRL_REG5:=0x08: Normal mode. FIFO disabled, INT1 latched. No 4D detection.6. CTRL_REG6=0x02: Interrupt polarity is falling edge.7. INT1_THS=0x04 or 64mg at

Hello,the STEVAL-MIC007V1 with the IMP23ABSU is on the first sight quiet interesting with the microphone bandwith up to 80kHz. However (due to imprecise reading from me) it turned out that this is a analog MEMS microphone. The STEVAL-MIC001V1 with the MP34DT05-A on the other hand is a digital MEMS microphone which puts out a PDM signal, which is in my opinion/application more suitable. But the 80kHz Bandwidth is more interesting toward industrial applications, but when using the STM32L496 the maximum frequency for the ADC is 80MHz and I would need 160MHz to sample the signal without aliasing. My question is: Is there an alternative digital MEMS microphone with 80kHz bandwidth with PDM output (STEVAL?) or is there a "easy" preprocessing implementation for the IMP23ABSU (also with minimal external electronic)?Best regards,ChRegBrg

Hi there,I was working on the LIS2DH12 for one of our applications and found that the LSI2DH12 is not able to work on a supply voltage greater than 2.7V. Is there any condition to operate the device on a voltage greater than 2.7V? In my application, I am operating at 3.3V, but I am not able to communicate with the device at this voltage. And when I drop the voltage level from 3.3 to 2.7V, it works fine.It would be really appreciable if you could share details to operate the device on 3.3V.Looking forward to hearing back from you soon. Warm regards,Sarthak Malik

I have a board developed by one of my colleague, that uses a STM32G474RE microcontroller and in his SPI1 I had both an LPS25HB (Mems ST barometer) and too an acelerometer SCA3300. For the LPS25HB I'm using the following driver: https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STMems_Standard_C_drivers/tree/master/lps25hb_STdCIt's possible ignore the details of the driver code but the important thing to note is thatThe driver requires you to write your own "platform_read" and "plataform_write" functions since this is platform dependent.I am using SPI and this is how my implementation of "plataform_read" is writed:int32_t platform_read_bar(void *handle, uint8_t reg, uint8_t *bufp, uint16_t len) { HA

I am suspecting that the ODR setting in my application is not correct. I want to be using 25Hz so according to the datasheet I would set register address 39h to 48h. 25Hz equals 001 which would give 01001000 = 48h.But all examples and also the Unico tool outputs 4Bh instead of 48h. Am I missing something or should the last two LSB bits always be 1 instead of 0?

Please let me know the following about LIS3DHTR1) Recommended dimension of thermal via on exposed pad.2) Recommended dimension of stencil

I've changed from LIS2DH to IIS2DH, without changing the drivers sources. According to the datasheet, there should be no problem doing this.In the application the accelerator is used to detect each motion of the device. If the device keeps un-motioned, it will channge an internal state into deepsleep. Once motioned again, the device will be waked up. When woken up, some other actions will be done.Now I have the problem, that the IIS2DH sets multiple interrupts on INT1. Reading the INT1_SRC register multiple times don't effect, that the IA bit is cleared (as described in the datasheet).My configuration:STATUS_REG_AUX: 0x07 OUT_ADC1_L : 0x08 OUT_ADC1_H : 0x09 OUT_ADC2_L : 0x0A OUT_ADC2_H : 0x0B OUT_ADC3_L : 0x0C OUT_ADC3_H : 0x0D WHO_AM_I : 0x0F CTRL_REG0 : 0x1E TEMP_CFG_REG : 0x1F CTRL_REG1 : 0x20 CTRL_REG2 : 0x21 CTRL_REG3 : 0x22 CTRL_REG4 : 0x23 CTRL_REG5 : 0x24 CTRL_REG6 : 0x25 REFERENCE : 0x26 STATUS_REG

HI,My MKI 109V3, even after firmware update, does not recognise adapters MKI197V1 or MKI212V1 (The WHO_AM_I register value does not match the device selected).I tried on two different laptops with windows 10.What am I doing wrong?thank you in advanceRegards 

Hi,How to confirm the part is belong to LIS2DE12TR? Thank 

HiI currently try to integrate the STEVAL-MKI168V1 for a development board via I2C.I use a TI MCU and use the default drivers provided by ST. The sensor does not respond to the defined I2C addresses of 0x31 resp. 0x33 if SA0=1. After doing a I2C scan I found out, the sensor responds to address 0x18 resp. 0x19 if SA0=1. Is this normal behavior?Using the 0x18 address, I can communicate with the sensor and receive the correct whoamI returnvalue of 0x33. But when trying to get accelerometer data the sensor returns 0 for all axes.This is how i setup the sensor (all setup calls are successful):  iisRet += iis2dh_block_data_update_set(&DevCtx, PROPERTY_DISABLE); iisRet += iis2dh_data_rate_set(&DevCtx, IIS2DH_ODR_100Hz); iisRet += iis2dh_full_scale_set(&DevCtx, IIS2DH_2g); iisRet += iis2dh_temperature_meas_set(&DevCtx, IIS2DH_TEMP_DISABLE); iisRet += iis2dh_operating_mode_

Hi everyone,I am using an LSM6DS3 IMU sensor for my current project.In Application Note AN4650, I read that the gyroscope analog signal coming from the mechanical parts is filtered by a low-pass anti-aliasing filter (having a constant bandwidth). Do we know what is the constant bandwidth?Regards,Rob

Hi,I am on a steep learning curve here. There are huge gaps in my understanding of the field, so any help will be most appreciated. Basically I am trying to connect to AIS2ih accelerometer (on Steval-mki218v1) with my Nucleo board, and try to communicate with it. So far I do fail miserably, and have no idea what am I missing. Basically I am getting the i2c slave address of the AIS2ih, and some register addresses (CTRL1, and CTRL6), than I try to write to them to start the accelerometer, after that I am trying to read Who_am_I register just to get some feedback that the concept is working, but it is not.Here is my code (not really mine, but an adaptation really), and photo of my wiring. Thanks! #include <stdio.h> #include "stm32f4xx_hal.h" #include "uart.h" #include "adc.h" #define DEVICE_ADDR_I2C 0011000 #define CTR1_Reg 0x20 #define CTR6_Reg 0x25 #define Who_Am_I_Reg 0x0F I2C_HandleTyp

I recently bought LSM6DS3TR-C sensor from local market. I tried to measure the accelerometer using Adafruit_LSM6DS and SparkFun_LSM6DS3_Arduino_Library library. In both case the sensor was not recognized. I found the sensor was working. It responded to my I2C communication. The identification register aka WHO_AM_I register held the value 0x6A. I am new in this area. Is the sensor the right one. Is there any easy library for reading accelerometer data from the sensor? I am attaching the sensor's picture. Your help will be very much appreciated.

I have STEVAL-MKI208V1K but not its own compatible motherboard. I want to use IIS3DWB sensor. When i connec SDA, SCL, GND and VDD(for vdd i have tried 3v3 and 5v), HAL_OK said HAL_ERROR. Is this STEVAL-MKI208V1K can be used standalone or no? Thanks for helping

Hi,My thesis topic is to develop a dynamic preventive maintenance schedule for medical devices based on their usage. For this purpose, I have been collecting data using a magnetometer sensor (, we use IIS2MDC) 24/7 for the past 3 months. I need guidance on how to analyze the data from the three axes. Standard deviation seems to provide accurate results in determining the duration of device usage. However, I am concerned about the presence of noise in the real data and the potential reasons for fluctuations. Could you provide insights on how to interpret the data and what percentage of error can be considered normal?

I would like to read out the pressure reading from this sensor, but it keep returning '0' Status.Tools: Nucleo-767ZI, STM32CUBEIDE, STEVAL-220VI (the sensor eval)I connect Sensor VDD to 3.3V,CS pin to VDD_IO,SDA, SCL pulled up by 4kOhm to 3.3V,INT/DRDY pin left unconnected,SAO address to GND.Using Device Address = 5Ch (I did the 1 bit-shifting), I started to read 4 registers directly from Status Register 27h, together with measured pressure 28, 29, 2Ah, into an 8 bits array. Then, I compared the LSB of 27h for a '1'.But I could never see once once of P_DA = 1. Or do we need to repeat 4x of "HAL_I2C_Mem_Read_IT" in order to get the reading of that 4 registers (27-2Ah)?=================================Can anyone share a successful read of this sensor with hardware connection and code snippets to correct my mistakes?by the way, I have another question about the 24bits Pressure data r
