Notes on STMicro IIS22DH high frequency MEMS accelerometer.

A promising project on Github:


Symbols in the polling code example from STMicroelectronic/iis2dh repo are defined in a sub-part of sdk-nrf modules/hal/ project space:

guest@ubuntu-vm:~/embedded/z3-on-var/modules/hal/st$ grep -nr IIS2DH_2g ./*
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.h:742:  IIS2DH_2g   = 0,
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:636:    case IIS2DH_2g:
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:637:      *val = IIS2DH_2g;
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:649:      *val = IIS2DH_2g;

guest@ubuntu-vm:~/embedded/z3-on-var/modules/hal/st$ grep -nr IIS2DH_ODR_1Hz ./*
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.h:707:  IIS2DH_ODR_1Hz                         = 0x01,
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:402:    case IIS2DH_ODR_1Hz:
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:403:      *val = IIS2DH_ODR_1Hz;

guest@ubuntu-vm:~/embedded/z3-on-var/modules/hal/st$ grep -nr IIS2DH_TEMP_ENABLE ./*
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.h:692:  IIS2DH_TEMP_ENABLE   = 3,
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:285:    case IIS2DH_TEMP_ENABLE:
./sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.c:286:      *val = IIS2DH_TEMP_ENABLE;
guest@ubuntu-vm:~/embedded/z3-on-var/modules/hal/st$ grep -nr PROPERTY_ENABLE ./*

And really the above project is pulled in to Nordic's sdk-nrf. Looks to be at a slightly older, or at least different version, but driver header and sources at https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/iis2dh are the same as in the STMicro hal code in Nordic sdk-nrf v1.6.1.


^ IIS2DH Control Registers As C Structures

An excerpt from Nordic sdk-nrf modules/hal/st/sensor/stmemsc/iis2dh_STdC/driver/iis2dh_reg.h:

#define IIS2DH_CTRL_REG4             0x23U
typedef struct {
#if DRV_BYTE_ORDER == DRV_LITTLE_ENDIAN
  uint8_t sim               : 1;

  uint8_t hr                : 1;
  uint8_t fs                : 2;
  uint8_t ble               : 1;
  uint8_t bdu               : 1;
#elif DRV_BYTE_ORDER == DRV_BIG_ENDIAN
  uint8_t bdu               : 1;
  uint8_t ble               : 1;

  uint8_t st                : 2;
  uint8_t sim               : 1;
#endif /* DRV_BYTE_ORDER */
} iis2dh_ctrl_reg4_t;


^ Possible Zephyr Driver Routines for IIS2DH

Following routines are not obvious nor mentioned anywhere in Zephyr Project documentation found so far, nor are they hinted at by any trace of analogous routines in the build artifacts of Zephyr lis2dh sample app. But may we use these following routines in app level code we want to have talking with STMicro's IIS2DH sensor? . . .

^ Configuration Post from ST Micro Forum

Excerpt on accelerator configurations from this developer: mhackney (Community Member) Edited by ST Community July 21, 2018 at 5:26 PM Posted on January 02, 2017 at 16:21


Ok, I overlooked the data sheet that Low Power mode is 8-bit data output. But that still does not explain why the data is not left aligned?

Also, here is my complete configuration to sanity check:

// setup CTRL_REG1


accelerometer_write(CTRL_REG1, 0b10011100); // ODR 5.376kHz in LPMode [7-4] Low power enable [3] Z enable [2]

// setup CTRL_REG2


accelerometer_write(CTRL_REG2, 0b00110001); //

// setup CTRL_REG3


accelerometer_write(CTRL_REG3, 0b01000000); // AOI (And Or Interrupt) on INT1 en [6]

// setup CTRL_REG6


accelerometer_write(CTRL_REG6, 0b00000000); //

// setup CTRL_REG4


accelerometer_write(CTRL_REG4, 0b00110000); // Full-scale selection 16G [5-4]

// setup CTRL_REG5


accelerometer_write(CTRL_REG5, 0b01001010); // FIFO enable [6] Latch INT1 [3]

// setup INT1_CFG


accelerometer_write(INT1_CFG, 0b00100000); // ZHIE enabled [5]

// setup INT1_THS


accelerometer_write(INT1_THS, Z_PROBE_SENSITIVITY); // 40

// setup INT1_DURATION


accelerometer_write(INT1_DURATION, 0);
