Description
Usage
Overflow condition
The SCA3000's Ring Buffer is a 192 acceleration data samples long (64 samples of 11 bit three
axis data) internal memory to relax the real-time operation requirements of the host processor. The
following parameters are configurable:
The ring buffer can be enabled by setting BUF_EN bit in MODE register to "1". After enabling the
buffer, acceleration data can be read from BUF_DATA register using decrement register read,
which is described in section 4.1.3.2 for SPI and 4.2.1.3 for I
Each measurement axis can be individually disabled by setting corresponding bits in BUF_X_EN,
BUF_Y_EN and BUF_Z_EN in OUT_CTRL register to "0".
Output data length can be changed from 11 bits to 8 bits by setting bit BUF_8BIT in MODE register
to "1". See section 3.3 for bit level descriptions.
The count of available data samples in output ring buffer can be read from BUF_COUNT register.
Register value is updated only when it is accessed over the SPI or I
Data shift out order is X,Y,Z. In 11 bit mode two bytes must be read to get all 11 bits out. In that
case, the MSB byte is 1
See section 2.7 for interrupt functionality details.
Acceleration data is available in X_LSB, X_MSB, Y_LSB, Y_MSB, Z_LSB and Z_MSB when the
ring buffer is enabled.
Overflow is detected from data ring buffer in same way as from the output registers. See section
2.2.2.1 for details.
