How to CONFIG ST Module LIS2DE12?

[rhackl]

I am trying to include software support for the ST LIS2DE12 accelerometer chip which is found in V1.5.0/zephyr/modules/kconfig.st as 

config USE_STDC_LISDE12

    bool

V1.5.0/zephyr/moduleskconfig states ""comment "Unavailable modules, please install those via the project manifest."

Is there a tutorial to help me understand how to add this configuration to my project?

Thanks

I could not find any samples or drivers for the sensor LIS2DE12, however I found a driver for the sensor LIS2DS12. I'm not sure how much difference there is between this sensor and the LIS2DE12, so you may have to modify the driver a little.

I could not find any samples for the LIS2DS12, Take a look at the sample zephyr/sample/sensor/lis2dh for guidance how to use the driver in your sample. I provided some bulletpoints below and referred to the LIS2DH sample for reference.

• Include <drivers/sensor.h>
  • https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v2.4.99-ncs2/samples/sensor/lis2dh/src/main.c 
• Run device_get_binding(DT_LABEL(DT_INST(0, st_lis2ds12)))
  • https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v2.4.99-ncs2/samples/sensor/lis2dh/src/main.c#L53
• Set CONFIG_LIS2DS12 in the prj.conf
  • https://github.com/nrfconnect/sdk-zephyr/blob/v2.4.99-ncs2/samples/sensor/lis2dh/prj.conf#L4 

You also have to add an overlay file to the sample to configure the hardware, take a look at this guide to get an idea how to go about that: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/b/archives/posts/nrf-connect-sdk-tutorial---part-3-temporary#h79sk0f70607qwcyitkx2xn61bmh9mo

Thank You Simon,

The lis2dh appears to be very similar to the lis2de. I will let you know how it goes.
