Thank you for your suggestion, I will try that and notify updates for this post's followers if any :)

[quote user="mucn"]I think I could not really understand how to embed SPI (examples\peripheral\spi) into Beacon (examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon). Could you also inform and help me with that issue?[/quote]

I suggest you make a copy of the SPIM example and modify that to talk to the ADX362, then merge this modified project into the beacon example.

Hello again, thank you for your reply.

I think I could not really understand how to embed SPI (examples\peripheral\spi) into Beacon (examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon). Could you also inform and help me with that issue?

Note that,

- I searched other posts about ADXL362 already but I will search and study again deeply as you suggested.

- I also studied SPI Master Example (examples\peripheral\spi) but I will also study SPIM driver API docs as you suggested.

- I will also share my related code for helping people engaging same issues, if it would be successfully implemented.

Best regards.

I suggest you serch devzone for other posts about the adxl362, there are quite a few.

The general method to interface with a sensor is to get the sensor manufacturer's driver and port it to whatever platform you're using(nRF52). The sensor drivers are usually written in a platform-agnostic way where all you need to do is to implement the serial driver API's in the sensor driver's R/W functions.

See SPIM driver API docs.

You should study the SPI example in the SDK first.
