Error when attempting to create a custom driver for kx134-1211 accelerometer

Question

Hello,

I am trying to create a custom driver for an accelerometer I have sourced. I am using the nrf5340-dk.

The code was not able to compile as a result of the following CMake errors when attempting to create a new driver:

warning: TACH_NPCX (defined at c:\Users\Matt\ncs\v1.6.1\nrf5340_Projects\kx134_tst1\build\soc\arm\nuvoton_npcx\npcx7\Kconfig.defconfig.series:85) defined without a type

The terminal process terminated with exit code: 1.

Terminal will be reused by tasks, press any key to close it.

I referenced the is2DH driver and sample to create my code.

I have created the following overlay file in the boards directory of the test file.

&spi1 {

compatible = "nordic,nrf-spim";

status = "okay";

sck-pin = <47>;

mosi-pin = <45>;

miso-pin = <46>;

cs-gpios = <&gpio1 12 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;

kx134@0 {

compatible = "rohm,kx134";

label = "KX134";

spi-max-frequency = <16000000>;

reg = <0>;

irq-gpios = <&gpio1 11 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;

};

I have added the driver instance to the correct KConfig and CMakeLists.txt files within the <homepath>\zephyr\drivers\sensor and <homepath>\zephyr\drivers directories.

I have also tried updating west and the tool chains required.

My development environment is the Visual Studio code configuration that was set up using the following instructions: devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../nrf-connect-for-visual-studio-code-preview

Would someone be able to help me trouble shoot these errors, that is familiar with the zephyr device tree api.

Thanks
