Demonstration kit description

Figure 3. Board top view
In order to use the eMotion demonstration kit, installation of a dedicated driver is required,
which is included in the installation pack, together with a GUI interface which allows simple
interaction with the sensor. The steps required for driver and software installation are
described in the following sections.
In
Figure 3
some main components placed on the top layer of the eMotion kit are
highlighted.
Jumpers JP9 and JP10 (
Figure 3
, ref 10, ref 11) are used to select the STM32 boot
mode. When the eMotion is used together with MEMS adapters, JP9 and JP10 must
be fitted (see STM32 datasheet for more information).
Jumper J2 (
Figure 3
, ref 7) can be used to directly supply the board (from 3.5 V to 6 V)
instead of using the USB connector.
Jumper JP1 allows the user to measure the sensor current consumption by connecting
a multimeter in series with its terminals (
Figure 3
, ref 9).
Jumpers JP4, JP5, and JP6 (
Figure 3
, ref 8) are used to manually set some features
which are available for just some of the analog MEMS adapters (see
Table 1
for more
details). JP4 is used to set the self-test feature, JP5 to handle the power-down pin, and
JP6 to reset the MEMS high-pass filter. When they are fitted on pins 2-3, these
functions are handled by the firmware itself.
