Featured Examples

Read Data from IMU and Environmental Sensors

Use C2000™ Microcontroller Blockset to read data from the BMI160 Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensor and BME280 Environmental sensor that are part of the BOOSTXL-SENSORS BoosterPack™ plug-in module.

Triple-Axis Tilt Calculation Using LIS3DH FIFO Data Ready Interrupt

Use the FIFO data ready interrupt of LIS3DH linear accelerometer connected to an TI's™ C2000-based hardware to sense the tilt of the sensor. This is done using a downstream function-call subsystem that reads acceleration values from FIFO buffer sensor.

Trigger Downstream Function-Call Subsystem Using C2000 External Interrupt Block with Single Tap Event on BMI160 Sensor

Use the C2000™ Microcontroller Blockset to trigger a downstream function-call in Monitor and Tune action when Single tap event occurs on BMI160 sensor using a TI C2000 External Interrupt block. This example model for monitor and tune simulation, shows the capabilities of the External Interrupt block during single tap event on BMI160 sensor.
