MikroElektronika 3 axis Accel 4 Click

Overview


Accel 4 Click_ is a sensing Click board™, equipped with the FXLS8974CF, a 3 axis accelerometer sensor.

This IC has a separate sensing element on each axis, which allows a very accurate and reliable measurement of the acceleration intensity in a 3D space, offering a basis for accurate positional calculations. Both I2C and SPI communication protocols are supported by the FXLS8974CF. 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 :ref:shields for more details.

Programming


Set --shield mikroe_accel4_click when you invoke west build. For example:

.. zephyr-app-commands:: :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/accel_polling :board: frdm_mcxn947/mcxn947/cpu0 :shield: mikroe_accel4_click :goals: build flash

See :dtcompatible:nxp,fxls8974 for documentation on the additional binding properties available for the FXLS8974CF sensor.
