l3gd20h-spin

This is a P8X32A/Propeller, P2X8C4M64P/Propeller 2 driver object for the ST L3GD20H 3DoF Gyroscope.

IMPORTANT: This software is meant to be used with the spin-standard-library (P8X32A) or p2-spin-standard-library (P2X8C4M64P). Please install the applicable library first before attempting to use this code, otherwise you will be missing several files required to build the project.

Salient Features

• I2C connection at up to 400kHz (default and alternate I2C address)
• SPI (4-wire) connection at up to 4MHz (P1), ~6MHz (P2)
• Read Gyroscope data (raw, or calculated in millionths of a degree per second)
• Read flags for data ready or overrun
• Set operation mode (power down, sleep, normal/active)
• Set output data rate
• Set high-pass filter freq for ODR, configure high-pass filter mode
• Set interrupt mask (int1 & int2), active pin state, output type
• Enable individual axes

Requirements

P1/SPIN1:

• spin-standard-library
• 1 extra core/cog for the PASM I2C or SPI engine, as applicable (or none, if bytecode-based engine is used)
• sensor.gyroscope.common.spinh (provided by spin-standard-library)

P2/SPIN2:

• p2-spin-standard-library
• sensor.gyroscope.common.spin2h (provided by p2-spin-standard-library)

Compiler Compatibility

(other versions or toolchains not listed are not supported, and may or may not work)

Limitations

• TBD
