| Problems with accelerometer MMA7455L |

Hi Guys!
I´m using the accelerometer of freescale MMA7455L via I2C.
The microcontroller that i´m using is the PIC18LF4553 runing at 3.3V
I have some problems when i try reading the registers 0x06 0x07 0x08 (8 bit value of x y and z axis); the data displayed in my LCD varies constantly: sometimes read 245, 231, 255, 1, 0, 10, 7... random values
There is the code:
| Code: |
#include <18F4553.h>
#fusesXTPLL,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP,NODEBUG,PLL1,CPUDIV1,USBDV,NOVREGEN
#use delay(clock=48000000)
#define USB_CON_SENSE_PIN PIN_C0
#include <usb_cdc.h>
#include <lcd.c>
#use i2c(master,slow,sda=PIN_B0, scl=PIN_B1,FORCE_HW)
int data=0;
void main() {
delay_ms(100);
lcd_init();
i2c_start();
i2c_write(0x3A); //0x1D shifted in with a 0 had been 0x3A
i2c_write(0x16); //MODE CONTROL REGISTER
i2c_write(0x05); //CONTINOUS MEASUREMENT
i2c_stop();
delay_ms(30);
loop:
i2c_start();
i2c_write(0x3A);
i2c_write(0x08); //8 bits output value Z
i2c_start();
i2c_write(0x3B); //0x1D shifted in with a 1 had been 0x3B
data=i2c_read(0);
i2c_stop();
delay_ms(500);
printf(lcd_putc,"\f %u",data);//PRINT DATA INTO LCD
goto loop;
}

Someting is wrong in my code?
Please help me!
Thanks!  |

| If readback of configuration registers is correct (constant), it's most likely sensor noise. The values you gave, are at least in an allowed range for zero readings. |
