Inclinometer tests

By mvuilleu, in Measures and Reviews, february 14,2020.

For some applications, the Yocto-3D and the Yocto-3D-V2 can be used as inclinometers, as they can estimate their spatial orientation. But you may have noticed that we don't provide any accuracy information on the inclination measure in the specifications. To know more, we are going to compare these two modules today with the Murata SCL3300 precision inclinometer that we interfaced last week with a Yocto-SPI.

Querying an SPI sensor automatically

By mvuilleu, in Measures, february 07,2020.

After last week's post on how to query an SPI sensor by explicitly managing SPI communications using the Yoctopuce library, we are now going to show how the Yocto-SPI can make your life even easier, and above all simplify the code of the application.

I2C : pressure sensor and water level

By martinm, in Measures and Electronics, october 25,2019.

Thanks to the new Yocto-I2C one can basically interface any I2C device, but one can also simply use it to test any I2C device. This week we decided to use this possibility to play with Amphenol's DLHR pressure sensors.

Computations in analog electrical sensors

By mvuilleu, in Measures, september 29,2019.

We recently showed you how Yoctopuce serial interfaces could make computations on the values read in order to present them directly in a form that the user can use. Today, we show you a similar feature which is also present on some of our analog electrical sensors.

Yocto-SPI and Alphasense OPC-N3

By martinm, in Measures and Programming, september 13,2019.

The Yocto-SPI documentation contains an example to interface the AlphaSense OPC-N2 particle counter. Since then, Alphasense has released a new model, the OPC-N3, and the commands to query it are slightly different. This week, by popular request, we explain how to make the OPC-N3 work with a Yocto-SPI and we take this opportunity to introduce a small innovation.
