FlexCase E/G
IMU Guide
- Read data from on-board inertial measurement unit (IMU) featuring 3-axis accelerometer and gyroscope
- Configure sample time and resolution
- Customize for your application
Specifications
A summary of the IMU is provided below.
| Feature | Parameter |
|---|---|
| Directions |  *Identical configuration for FlexCase G |
| Acceleration Range | ±2/±4/±8/±16 g |
| Gyroscope Range | ±125/±250/±500/±1000/±2000/±4000 dps |
| Interrupts | 2 |
| Part Number | ST ASM330LHH (FlexCase E) ST ASM330LHB (FlexCase G) |
The IMU is directly connected to the MCU via SPI. Use the FlexCase and IMU datasheets to set up communication or reference the IMU_k3.slx sample Simulink model.
Additional Information
The IMU is highly configurable. Using control commands, features can be configured such as:
- Configure hardware filters
- Change the acceleration/rotational speed limits
- Configure capture mode
- Detect acceleration events (orientation change, free-fall, wake-up)
- Generate hardware interrupts
