MikroElektronika 3D Hall 3 Click

Overview

3D Hall 3 Click is a very accurate, magnetic field sensing Click board™, used to measure the intensity of the magnetic field across three perpendicular axes.

It is equipped with the LIS2MDL, a low power 3D magnetic sensor. This IC has a separate Hall sensing element on each axis, which allows a very accurate and reliable measurement of the magnetic field intensity in a 3D space, offering a basis for accurate positional calculations. Both I2C and SPI communication protocols are supported by the LIS2MDL. This sensor IC features a powerful programmable interrupt engine, allowing firmware optimization.

Requirements

This shield can only be used with a board that provides a mikroBUS™ socket and defines a mikrobus_i2c node label for the mikroBUS™ I2C interface. See Shields for more details.

Programming

Set -DSHIELD=mikroe_3d_hall_3_click when you invoke west build. For example:

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b mikroe_clicker_ra4m1/r7fa4m1ab3cfm --shield mikroe_3d_hall_3_click samples/sensor/magn_polling

See st,lis2mdl for documentation on the additional binding properties available for the LIS2MDL sensor.
