This is a P8X32A/Propeller driver object for the STMicroelectronics L3G4200D 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.
- I2C connection at ~30kHz (P1: SPIN I2C) 400kHz (P1: PASM I2C, P2), SPI connection at up to 1MHz
- Optional alternate I2C address
- Read Gyroscope data (raw, or calculated in micro-degrees per second)
- Read flags for data ready or overrun
- Set operation mode (powerdown, sleep, normal/active)
- Set output data rate
- Set interrupt mask (int1 & int2), active pin state, output type
- Configure high-pass, low-pass filters
- Enable individual axes
- Manually or automatically set bias offsets/zero rate level
P1/SPIN1:
- spin-standard-library
- P1/SPIN1: 1 extra core/cog for the PASM I2C/SPI engine (none if bytecode 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)
