nrf52 with MPU9255

[kirt]

Hi ,I am using nrf52 DK with mpu9255.I am using source code given here here.of this link,I have taken  'nrf5-ble-data-ready-interrupts' example .code  builts fine in keil v5 though.I am not getting accel values.

help will be appreciated.

Hi, 

I have pushed an updated 'nrf5-ble-data-ready-interrupts' example to github that I have tested with a PCA10056 and an MPU9255. 

Note that to use pin 17, 19, 20, and 21 on the PCA10056 you will need to cut some solder bridges and do some soldering as these pins are not actually connected to the P24 header on the kit by default (as is described in the image you have posted): Solder bridge configuration.

Hi MartinBL,

I amnot using PCA 10056.I am using PCA10040.can you share link of updated git hub example

thank you

[kirt]

Yes ...Its working now with both SPI/TWI.

i am using same code for board .I have changed SCL and SDA as follows

In main.c

#define MPU_MPU_INT_PIN     12  //as INT pin10  for given kit .Physical number 12

in nrf_drv_mpu_twi.c

#define MPU_TWI_SCL_PIN 9        
#define MPU_TWI_SDA_PIN 8     

because Pin  p0.06 i.e physical number 8 and  P0.07 i.e physical pin number 9

I am not  getting values for accel and magneto  .please suggest which about pin number/code change

Here i am using nRF52 DK as a debugger/programmer.another h/w is my application h/w

[MartinBL]

If you want SDA on P0.06 and SCL on P0.07 you should set: 

#define MPU_TWI_SCL_PIN 7

#define MPU_TWI_SDA_PIN 6

Yes .I have set and i have changed INT pin as well ,Because pin 0.08 is is connected to INT pin of mpu9250

#define MPU_MPU_INT_PIN 8 

 in pca10040.h file these 3 pins are used for

#define RX_PIN_NUMBER 8
#define TX_PIN_NUMBER  6
#define CTS_PIN_NUMBER  7

If you look on the back side of your kit you can see which pins are already being used for things like UART. In the MPU examples the UART are configured before the MPU in the code. If you "override" the UART configuration and use the UART pins for the MPU then naturally you will not see anything printed to your terminal. This is why I chose to use pin 3,4,28,29 and 30 by default in the examples since they are not being used by anything else.

yes.

1.In the code sample rate set  is 5Hz, If i require to change it to suppose 25Hz ,Do i need to make here 39 instead of 199 ?

p_mpu_config.smplrt_div = 199;   // Change sampelrate. Sample Rate = Gyroscope Output Rate / (1 + SMPLRT_DIV). 199 gives a sample rate of 5Hz

2.Data is sent directly when i enable the notification after connection to device .what changes do i need make if i want to send data only after i write a value to characteristic ?

[MartinBL]

Do i need to make here 39 instead of 199 ?
Yes.

what changes do i need make if i want to send data only after i write a value to characteristic 
I advice you to study the BLE Blinky Application example. It shows how you can turn on an LED by writing to a characteristic. With a little modification you can use this to achieve what you want.

hi

i need to add manufacturer data to same example ,sdk14

can you please  suggest example to refer for s132?
