LSM9DS1 FIFO mode

[sheit]

HI,

I am looking at using the LSM9DS1 to sense both acceleration and the gyroscope. It would also be nice if I could use the fifo, so I can periodically sleep my main processor.

The issue is that I'm not sure how this fifo works. Reading the data sheet it seems that there is one fifo that is wide enough for the temperature, acclerometer, and gyroscope. Is this how it works? Or does each measurement have it's own fifo? Also when does that fifo de-queue the current entry so you can see the next entry? It seems that this should happen automatically after the last data address is read.

Yes, there is one FIFO with 32 slots for accelerometer and gyroscope data.

If you read one set of data, next set is available in the output registers (it is done automatically).
