Cartesian_low_power example always showing same data #12

Closed mlvandenbos closed 5 years ago

When trying the library with a '3D magnetic sensor 2GO' board, with example 'Cartasian_low_power' is always shows this in serial monitor:

I'm using the arduino IDE v1.8.5 and library v1.0.1. The board itself is working fine in the 3D toGo IDE.

Hi mlvandenbos,

Could you let us know the specific hardware board so we can try to reproduce the issue? There are two variants: https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/sensor/magnetic-position-sensor/3d-magnetic-sensor/ image

According the GUI application I have a TLE493D A1B6

Hi mlvandenbos,

This library is for the TLE493D sensors family. There is an specific library for the TLV493D variant in this repository.

Hi Juan,

I'm sorry. I completely overlooked the E/V difference.

I will try that library.

jaenrig-ifx commented 5 years ago

No problem. It is too similar not to be misleadin :) Let us know if you experiment any issues with the right lib.

mlvandenbos commented 5 years ago

I tried the other library but it also gives no reading.

X = 0.00 mT; Y = 0.00 mT; Z = 0.00 mT

I checked the response code of the 'updateData()' call and it returns '1' so if i'm correct that indicates a bus error?

Should I open an issue on the other repo?

Hi Mark,

Certainly I reproduce the same error. It works with the shield2go ( + xmc2go) variant. Yes, it seems like a bus error. I reopen it here on the right repository. We will work on it and get back to you as soon as possible.

Hi Juan,

Is there any new on this issue? Or can I help in some way?

Dear Mark,

Sorry for the delay. We are now looking into this issue. Of course, your insights and findings would be highly appreciated :) Thanks for you patience.

Dear Mark,

Thanks for you patience. I have created a branch kit2go-wa with a workaound for the TLE493D-A1B6 Kit2go. The documentation is not updated, and the power pin is controlled by a pin, that needs to be enabled. It should work now if you download that branch.

Best Regards, Juan A

Hi Juan,

It is working with the kit2go-wa branch. I could simply compile and upload the 'Cartesian' example and receive the data. Thank you.

Mark
