# Arduino library for Pololu LSM303 boards | ||
|
||
Version: 3.0.0 <br> | ||
Release date: 2016-08-17 <br> | ||
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/pololu/lsm303-arduino.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/pololu/lsm303-arduino)<br> | ||
[www.pololu.com](https://www.pololu.com/) | ||
|
||
## Summary | ||
|
||
This is a library for an | ||
[Arduino-compatible controller](https://www.pololu.com/arduino) that | ||
interfaces with LSM303D, LSM303DLHC, LSM303DLM, and LSM303DLH 3D | ||
compass and accelerometer ICs on Pololu boards. It makes it simple to | ||
read the raw accelerometer and magnetometer data from these boards: | ||

|
||
The library also includes a function for computing the | ||
tilt-compensated heading for those looking to use the LSM303 as a | ||
tilt-compensated compass. | ||
|
||
## Getting started | ||
|
||
### Hardware | ||
|
||
Make the following connections with wires between the Arduino and the | ||
LSM303 board: | ||
|
||
#### Arduino Uno R3, Leonardo, Mega 2560 | ||
|
||

|
||

A4 -> SDA | ||
A5 -> SCL | ||
|
||
### Software | ||
|
||
If you are using version 1.6.2 or later of the | ||
[Arduino software (IDE)](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software), you can use | ||
the Library Manager to install this library: | ||
|
||
1. In the Arduino IDE, open the "Sketch" menu, select "Include Library", then | ||
"Manage Libraries...". | ||
2. Search for "LSM303". | ||
3. Click the LSM303 entry in the list. | ||
4. Click "Install". | ||
|
||
If this does not work, you can manually install the library: | ||
|
||
1. Download the | ||
[latest release archive from GitHub](https://github.com/pololu/lps-arduino/releases) | ||
and decompress it. | ||
2. Rename the folder "lps-arduino-xxxx" to "LSM303". | ||
3. Drag the "LSM303" folder into the "libraries" directory inside your | ||
Arduino sketchbook directory. You can view your sketchbook location by | ||
opening the "File" menu and selecting "Preferences" in the Arduino IDE. If | ||
there is not already a "libraries" folder in that location, you should make | ||
the folder yourself. | ||
4. After installing the library, restart the Arduino IDE. | ||
|
||
## Examples | ||
|
||
Several example sketches are available that show how to use the | ||
library. You can access them from the Arduino IDE by opening the | ||
"File" menu, selecting "Examples", and then selecting "LSM303". If | ||
you cannot find these examples, the library was probably installed | ||
incorrectly and you should retry the installation instructions above. | ||
|
||
### Serial | ||
|
||
This program continuously reads the accelerometer and magnetometer, | ||
communicating the readings over the serial interface. You can display | ||
the readings with the Arduino Serial Monitor. | ||
|
||
Example output: | ||
|
||
A: 192 -1040 -17168 M: -512 27 144 | ||
A: 288 -1040 -17232 M: -511 26 143 | ||
A: 16 -1104 -17216 M: -511 27 144 | ||
|
||
See the comments in this sketch for some notes on how to convert the | ||
raw sensor values to units of g and gauss. | ||
|
||
### Calibrate | ||
|
||
This program is similar to the Serial example, but instead of printing | ||
the most recent readings, it prints a running minimum and maximum of | ||
the readings from each magnetometer axis. These values can be used to | ||
calibrate the `heading()` functions and the Heading example after | ||
moving the LSM303 through every possible orientation. | ||
|
||
### Heading | ||
|
||
This program uses readings from the accelerometer and magnetometer to | ||
calculate a tilt-compensated compass heading (in degrees relative to a | ||
default vector), which is communicated serially and can be displayed | ||
with the Arduino Serial Monitor. The default vector is chosen to point | ||
along the surface of the PCB, in the direction of the top of the text | ||
on the silkscreen. (This is the +X axis on the Pololu LSM303D carrier | ||
and the -Y axis on the Pololu LSM303DLHC, LSM303DLM, and LSM303DLH | ||
carriers.) See the comments if you want to use a different reference | ||
vector. | ||
|
||
For the most accurate results, you should replace the values of | ||
`m_min` and `m_max` assigned in the `setup()` function with your own | ||
values obtained from the Calibrate example. | ||
|
||
## Other library applications | ||
|
||
These programs make use of the LSM303 library but are not included in | ||
the library archive or repository. | ||
|
||
- [MinIMU-9 + Arduino AHRS](https://github.com/pololu/minimu-9-ahrs-arduino) | ||
<br> This sketch allows an Arduino connected to a MinIMU-9 or | ||
AltIMU-10 to function as an attitude and heading reference system, | ||
calculating estimated roll, pitch, and yaw angles from sensor | ||
readings that can be visualized with a 3D test program on a PC. It | ||
is based on the work of Jordi Munoz, William Premerlani, Jose Julio, | ||
and Doug Weibel. | ||
- [Pololu_Open_IMU](https://github.com/mikeshub/Pololu_Open_IMU/tree/master/Pololu_Open_IMU) | ||
by mikeshub <br> This is an alternative AHRS implementation that | ||
uses the | ||
[Madgwick algorithm](http://www.x-io.co.uk/open-source-imu-and-ahrs-algorithms/). | ||
- [ascii_graph](https://gist.github.com/drewtm/9081341) by drewtm <br> | ||
This sketch outputs a text-based graph of LSM303 accelerometer and | ||
L3G gyro data, providing a quick way to check whether the sensors | ||
are working as expected. | ||
|
||
## Library reference | ||
|
||
- `vector<int16_t> a` <br> The last values read from the | ||
accelerometer. | ||
- `vector<int16_t> m` <br> The last values read from the magnetometer. | ||
- `vector<int16_t> m_min` <br> Lower bounds (minimum values) for the | ||
magnetometer readings on each axis; set this appropriately to | ||
calibrate `heading()`. | ||
- `vector<int16_t> m_max` <br> Upper bounds (maximum values) for the | ||
magnetometer readings on each axis; set this appropriately to | ||
calibrate `heading()`. | ||
- `byte last_status` <br> The status of the last I2C transmission. See | ||
the "`Wire.endTransmission()` | ||
documentation":http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/WireEndTransmission | ||
for return values. | ||
- `LSM303(void)` <br> Constructor; initializes `m_min` and `m_max` | ||
with placeholder values. | ||
- `bool init(deviceType device, sa0State sa0)` <br> Initializes the | ||
library with the device being used (`device_DLH`, `device_DLM`, | ||
`device_DLHC`, `device_D`, or `device_auto`) and the state of the | ||
SA0 pin (`sa0_low`, `sa0_high`, or `sa0_auto`), which determines the | ||
least significant bit(s) of the I²C slave address (on some devices, | ||
and only for the accelerometer in some cases). Constants for these | ||
arguments are defined in LSM303.h. Both of these arguments are | ||
optional; if they are not specified, the library will try to | ||
automatically detect the device and accelerometer address | ||
<sup>[1](#f1)</sup>. A boolean is returned indicating whether the | ||
type of LSM303 device was successfully determined (if necessary). | ||
- `byte getDeviceType(void)` <br> Returns the device type specified to | ||
or detected by `init()`. | ||
- `void enableDefault(void)` <br> Turns on the accelerometer and | ||
magnetometer and enables a consistent set of default settings. This | ||
function will set the accelerometer's full scale to be +/-2 g, which | ||
means that a reading of 16384 corresponds to approximately 1 g. The | ||
magnetometer's full scale is set to +/-4 gauss for the LSM303D or | ||
+/-1.3 gauss on all other devices. See the comments in LSM303.cpp | ||
for a full explanation of these settings. | ||
- `void writeReg(byte reg, byte value)` <br> Writes an accelerometer | ||
or magnetometer register with the given value. Register addresses | ||
are defined by the regAddr enumeration type in LSM303.h. Example | ||
use: `compass.writeReg(LSM303::CTRL_REG1_A, 0x57);` | ||
- `void readReg(int reg)` <br> Reads an accelerometer or magnetometer | ||
register and returns the value read.<sup>[2](#f2)</sup><sup>[3](#f3)</sup> | ||
- `void writeAccReg(byte reg, byte value)` <br> Writes an | ||
accelerometer register with the given value. | ||
- `byte readAccReg(byte reg)` <br> Reads an accelerometer register and | ||
returns the value read. | ||
- `void writeMagReg(byte reg, byte value)` <br> Writes a magnetometer | ||
register with the given value. | ||
- `byte readMagReg(int reg)` <br> Reads a magnetometer register and | ||
returns the value read.<sup>[3](#f3)</sup> | ||
- `void readAcc(void)` <br> Takes a reading from the accelerometer and | ||
stores the values in the vector `a`. Conversion of the readings to | ||
units of g depends on the accelerometer's selected gain (full scale | ||
setting). Note that in the LSM303DLHC, LSM303DLM, and LSM303DLH, | ||
the acceleration data registers actually contain a left-aligned | ||
12-bit number, so the lowest 4 bits are always 0, and the values in | ||
`a` should be shifted right by 4 bits (divided by 16) to be | ||
consistent with the conversion factors specified in the datasheets. | ||
- `void readMag(void)` <br> Takes a reading from the magnetometer and | ||
stores the values in the vector `m`. Conversion of the readings to | ||
units of gauss depends on the magnetometer's selected gain (full | ||
scale setting). | ||
- `void read(void)` <br> Takes a reading from both the accelerometer | ||
and magnetometer and stores the values in the vectors `a` and `m`. | ||
- `void setTimeout(unsigned int timeout)` <br> Sets a timeout period | ||
for `readAcc()` and `readMag()`, in milliseconds, after which they | ||
will abort if no data is received. A value of 0 disables the | ||
timeout. | ||
- `unsigned int getTimeout(void)` <br> Returns the current timeout | ||
period setting. | ||
- `bool timeoutOccurred(void)` <br> Returns a boolean indicating | ||
whether a call to `readAcc()` or `readMag()` has timed out since the | ||
last call to `timeoutOccurred()`. | ||
- `float heading(void)` <br> Returns the tilt-compensated heading of a | ||
default vector in degrees (the angular difference in the horizontal | ||
plane between the default vector and north). The default vector is | ||
chosen to point along the surface of the PCB, in the direction of | ||
the top of the text on the silkscreen. This is the +X axis on the | ||
Pololu LSM303D carrier and the -Y axis on the Pololu LSM303DLHC, | ||
LSM303DLM, and LSM303DLH carriers. | ||
- `float heading(vector from)` <br> Returns the tilt-compensated | ||
heading of the given vector in degrees (the angular difference in | ||
the horizontal plane between `from` and north). | ||
|
||
<b name="f1">1</b> The automatic detection might fail if you do not | ||
use the Pololu boards' default accelerometer address, so you should | ||
specify your particular device if you change the state of the SA0 pin. | ||
|
||
<b name="f2">2</b> This function will not work for reading | ||
TEMP_OUT_H_M and TEMP_OUT_L_M on the LSM303DLHC. To read those two | ||
registers, use `readMagReg()` instead. | ||
|
||
<b name="f3">3</b> If the magnetometer data registers are read using | ||
register address constants without a specific device prefix | ||
(e.g. `OUT_Y_H_M`), these functions will automatically use the correct | ||
register addresses depending on the device type. | ||
|
||
## Version history | ||
|
||
* 3.0.0 (2016-08-17): Updated library to work with the Arduino Library Manager. | ||
* 2.1.0 (2015-02-05): Improved autodetect behavior in `init()`; | ||
reverted argument types in register access functions to allow | ||
numeric register addresses; other miscellaneous fixes and | ||
optimizations. | ||
* 2.0.0 (2013-11-27): Major rewrite. List of significant changes: | ||
* Added support for LSM303D. | ||
* Lowest 4 bits of accelerometer readings are no longer dropped | ||
before being stored in `a`; this makes the values returned by | ||
the library more consistent between the LSM303D and older | ||
sensors. | ||
* `enableDefault()` behavior changed to be more consistent across devices. | ||
* `heading()` now returns a float instead of an int. | ||
* Library constants converted to enums. | ||
* Added `writeReg()` and `readReg()`, which should be usable in | ||
place of `writeAccReg()`, `readAccReg()`, `writeMagReg()`, and | ||
`readMagReg()` in most situations. | ||
* `timeoutOccurred()` now reports whether a timeout occurred since | ||
it was last called instead of only on the most recent | ||
`readAcc()` or `readMag()` call. | ||
* Magnetometer gain functions removed; unfortunately, they would | ||
have been hard to update to support the LSM303D. | ||
* 1.4.4 (2013-07-22): Corrected comments explaining `heading()` function. | ||
* 1.4.3 (2013-03-15): Enable high resolution mode for LSM303DLHC | ||
accelerometer in `enableDefault()`. | ||
* 1.4.2 (2012-10-31): Cast sensor readings to 16-bit ints for better | ||
portability. | ||
* 1.4.1 (2012-07-06): Added `getDeviceType()` function for programs | ||
that need to autodetect devices and distinguish between them. | ||
* 1.4.0 (2012-05-24): Added magnetometer gain functions and reading | ||
timeout feature; thanks to Joshua Hogendorn and Eric Brundick for | ||
these contributions. Added keywords.txt and changed file extensions | ||
of examples to .ino. | ||
* 1.3.0 (2011-12-12): Arduino 1.0 compatibility. | ||
* 1.2.0 (2011-11-15): Original release. (numbered to avoid confusion | ||
with our earlier | ||
[LSM303DLH library](https://github.com/pololu/LSM303DLH)) | ||
* Besides the name change, the main difference in this library | ||
is that you need to call the `init()` function before using | ||
any of the other library functions, typically from within the | ||
Arduino `setup()` function. While the older library only works | ||
with the Pololu boards' default accelerometer slave address of | ||
0011000b, this library allows you to specify the slave address | ||
with the `init()` function. |
