Carte de clic IMU 6DOF 13
Overview
La carte Click Board™ 6DOF IMU 13 est une carte complémentaire compacte qui contient une boussole électronique composée d'un accéléromètre linéaire à 3 axes et d'un capteur de champ magnétique à 3 axes. Cette carte comprend le MC6470, un accéléromètre et un magnétomètre pour une solution de capteur à 6 degrés de liberté (6 DoF), de mCube Inc. Il dispose d'une plage d'accélération linéaire à pleine échelle de ±16 g et d'un capteur magnétique à faible bruit avec une résolution de champ magnétique allant jusqu'à 0,15 μT, avec une seule interface I2C disponible pour contrôler séparément les fonctions de magnétomètre et d'accéléromètre, permettant un fonctionnement indépendant des fonctions pour une flexibilité d'application. Cette carte Click Board™ est un excellent choix pour les applications nécessitant un pointage directionnel de haute précision telles que l'orientation de la carte, la superposition de données de réalité virtuelle, la navigation améliorée et le remplacement du gyroscope.
L' IMU 6DOF 13 Click est pris en charge par une bibliothèque compatible mikroSDK, qui comprend des fonctions qui simplifient le développement logiciel. Cette Click Board™ est un produit entièrement testé, prêt à être utilisé sur un système équipé du socket mikroBUS™.
How Does The 6DOF IMU 13 Click Board™ Work?
The 6DOF IMU 13 Click Board™ is based on the MC6470 that combines an accelerometer and magnetometer for a 6 DoF (6 Degrees of Freedom) sensor solution, from mCube Inc. An accelerometer has two states of operation: STANDBY which is his default state after Power-Up function, and WAKE. The STANDBY state offers the lowest power consumption, and only in this state, the I2C interface is active and all register reads and writes are allowed. There is no event detection, sampling, or acceleration measurement in this state. In WAKE state, only write access is permitted to the MODE register. The full-scale acceleration range can be adjusted from ±2g, up to ±16g with a 14-bit resolution.
This 6DOF IMU 13 Click Board™ also includes a high-performance magnetic sensor with 0.15μT resolution, broad field range up to ±2.4mT, and a programmable output data rate from 0.5 to 100 Hz. The magnetometer has two operational modes, Stand-By and Active Mode with Force and Normal State, whose primary purpose is for power management. It also provides additional functions such as Data Ready Function which occurs when new measured results are updated, Offset Calibration and Drift Functions, and Temperature Measurement Function that retrieves temperature data used for internal compensation of output data from an internal temperature sensor. The magnetic sensor output value of each axis is positive when turned toward the magnetic north.
The MC6470 possesses two interrupt outputs, magnetometer (IN2) and an accelerometer (IN1) interrupts, routed to the AN and INT pins on the mikroBUS™ used to signal MCU that an event has been sensed. It also supports directional tap detection in ±X, ±Y, or ±Z axis, where each axis is independent, although only one direction per axis is supported simultaneously. In this case, the interrupt pins can be used to indicate that a tap event has been detected.
The 6DOF IMU 13 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface with a maximum frequency of 400kHz. The MC6470 always operates as an I2C slave device on both magnetometer and accelerometer I2C interfaces and allows the choice of the least significant bit (LSB) of its I2C slave address which can be done by using the SMD jumper labelled as ADDR SEL.
This Click Board™ is designed to be operated only with a 3.3V logic level. A proper logic voltage level conversion should be performed before the Click board™ is used with MCUs with different logic levels.

Software Support
We provide a library for the 6DOF IMU 13 Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library covers all the necessary functions that enable the use of the 6DOF IMU 13 Click board. It initializes and defines the I2C bus driver and drivers that offer a plethora of settings. The library also offers functions that allow reading of accelerometer and magnetometer, as well as generic read and write function that offers reading( and writing) of different lengths of data.
