================ ADIS16475 driver

This driver supports Analog Device's IMUs on SPI bus.

  1. Supported devices ====================
  • ADIS16465 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16465>_
  • ADIS16467 <https://www.analog.com/ADIS16467>_

Each supported device is a precision, miniature microelectromechanical system (MEMS) inertial measurement unit (IMU) that includes a triaxial gyroscope and a triaxial accelerometer. Each inertial sensor in the IMU device combines with signal conditioning that optimizes dynamic performance. The factory calibration characterizes each sensor for sensitivity, bias, alignment, linear acceleration (gyroscope bias), and point of percussion (accelerometer location). As a result, each sensor has dynamic compensation formulas that provide accurate sensor measurements over a broad set of conditions.

  1. Device attributes ====================

Accelerometer, gyroscope measurements are always provided. Furthermore, the driver offers the capability to retrieve the delta angle and the delta velocity measurements computed by the device.

The delta angle measurements represent a calculation of angular displacement between each sample update, while the delta velocity measurements represent a calculation of linear velocity change between each sample update.

Finally, temperature data are provided which show a coarse measurement of the temperature inside of the IMU device. This data is most useful for monitoring relative changes in the thermal environment.

The signal chain of each inertial sensor (accelerometers and gyroscopes) includes the application of unique correction formulas, which are derived from extensive characterization of bias, sensitivity, alignment, response to linear acceleration (gyroscopes), and point of percussion (accelerometer location) over a temperature range of −40°C to +85°C, for each ADIS device. These correction formulas are not accessible, but users do have the opportunity to adjust the bias for each sensor individually through the calibbias attribute.

Each IIO device, has a device folder under /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX, where X is the IIO index of the device. Under these folders reside a set of device files, depending on the characteristics and features of the hardware device in questions. These files are consistently generalized and documented in the IIO ABI documentation.

The following tables show the adis16475 related device files, found in the specific device folder path /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX.

Channels processed values

A channel value can be read from its _raw attribute. The value returned is the raw value as reported by the devices. To get the processed value of the channel, apply the following formula:

.. code-block:: bash

    processed value = (_raw + _offset) * _scale

Where _offset and _scale are device attributes. If no _offset attribute is present, simply assume its value is 0.

The adis16475 driver offers data for 5 types of channels, the table below shows the measurement units for the processed value, which are defined by the IIO framework:

+-------------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Channel type | Measurement unit | +-------------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Acceleration on X, Y, and Z axis | Meters per Second squared | +-------------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Angular velocity on X, Y and Z axis | Radians per second | +-------------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Delta velocity on X. Y, and Z axis | Meters per Second | +-------------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Delta angle on X, Y, and Z axis | Radians | +-------------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Temperature | Millidegrees Celsius | +-------------------------------------+---------------------------+

3. Device buffers

This driver supports IIO buffers.

All devices support retrieving the raw acceleration, gyroscope and temperature measurements using buffers.

The following device families also support retrieving the delta velocity, delta angle and temperature measurements using buffers:

  • ADIS16477
  • ADIS16500
  • ADIS16505
  • ADIS16507

However, when retrieving acceleration or gyroscope data using buffers, delta readings will not be available and vice versa.

Usage examples

Set device trigger in current_trigger, if not already set:

.. code-block:: bash

    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> cat trigger/current_trigger

    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo adis16505-2-dev0 > trigger/current_trigger
    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> cat trigger/current_trigger
    adis16505-2-dev0

Select channels for buffer read:

.. code-block:: bash

    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo 1 > scan_elements/in_deltavelocity_x_en
    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo 1 > scan_elements/in_deltavelocity_y_en
    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo 1 > scan_elements/in_deltavelocity_z_en
    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo 1 > scan_elements/in_temp0_en

Set the number of samples to be stored in the buffer:

.. code-block:: bash

    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo 10 > buffer/length

Enable buffer readings:

.. code-block:: bash

    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> echo 1 > buffer/enable

Obtain buffered data:

.. code-block:: bash

    root:/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:device0> hexdump -C /dev/iio\:device0
