2.2.4 Using Mode 3 – Accelerometer Demo
Mode 3 is entered by pressing switch S1 three times, followed by switch S2.
Upon entering this mode, the on-board accelerometer (see Figure 4 ) is calibrated. To aid this calibration
process, it is recommended to place the board on a level surface before entering the mode.
Figure 4. On-Board Accelerometer
After the calibration sequence is completed, LED4 and LED5 are turned on. When tilting the board in an
upward or downward direction, the LEDs follow the direction of the tilt. S2 toggles the display on and off,
similar to other modes.
Mode 3 also writes the sampled data from the ADC to the FRAM in real time with no wait states or extra
cycles spent on setting up the FRAM. This can be observed in the ADC interrupt service routine. The
sampling takes place at more than 15k samples per second. At this speed, flash devices require that the
data be buffered in RAM before writing to flash. In FRAM devices, the only bottleneck is the speed at
which the ADC can sample, not the writes to nonvolatile memory.
2.2.4.1 Displaying Results on the PC GUI
When in the accelerometer mode, the GUI mimics the LEDs that are lit up on the Experimenter Board and
are a reflection of the tilt of the board.
