LIS3DH

A C89 driver for the 3-axis accelerometer LIS3DH. Supports both I2C and SPI.

Features

• FIFO
• HP filter
• 2G, 4G, 8G and 16G
• Low-power mode, normal mode and high-resolution mode
• ADC and temperature sensing
• Interrupt generation
• Free-fall detection
• Single-click detection
• Double-click detection
• 4D/6D orientation detection
• Sleep-to-Wake/Return-to-Sleep
• Self test

Examples

See the example/ dir for complete code examples and explanations of LIS3DH terminology

Implementation

This driver requires the user to implement the following interface functions:

This project has example interface code for I2C and SPI used on Raspberry Pi 4 and STM32

/* initialise the "interface" */
int init(void);
/* read from register `reg', `size' amount of bytes, and write them to `dst' */
int read(uint8_t reg, uint8_t *dst, uint32_t size);
/* write `value' to register `reg' */
int write(uint8_t reg, uint8_t value);
/* sleep for `dur_us' microseconds */
int sleep(uint32_t dur_us);
/* deinitalise the "interface" */
int deinit(void);

All above functions return 0 on success, and any non-zero value on error.

If init and/or deinit are set to NULL, they will be ignored. Useful on microcontrollers.

I2C

    uint8_t buf[2] = { reg, value };

}

    if (size > 1) {
