ADXL345 Digital Accelerometer Driver + Processing
PostPosted: Wed Mar 26, 2014 2:15 pm     Reply with quote

This driver is for use with ADXL345 Digital Accelerometer using the I2C protocol.
The code was done on CCS 5.018, is commented and is working well, tested by PIC18F4520 and Processing 2.1.1 by serial port on a PC. The code for Processing (.pde) is also below.

This program can give the raw values, the three critical flight dynamics parameters (roll, pitch and yaw=0) and angles of rotation between the vector gravity and each sensor's axis (orthogonal coordinates system).

Code:

#include <18F4520.h>
#case

#FUSES HS
#FUSES PUT
#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES NOBROWNOUT               //No brownout reset
#FUSES NOLVP                    //No low voltage prgming, B3(PIC16) or B5(PIC18) used for I/O
#FUSES NOXINST                  //Extended set extension and Indexed Addressing mode disabled (Legacy mode)

#use delay(crystal=20MHz)
#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,ERRORS)
#use i2c(master, fast, sda=PIN_C4, scl=PIN_C3)

#include <math.h>
