RA8P1 Titan Board IST8310 Example Usage Instructions

English | Chinese

Introduction

This routine focuses on how to communicate with the IST8310 magnetometer module using RT-Thread’s IIC framework on the Titan Board.

Hardware Description

Titan Board uses IIC2 to communicate with IST8310.

FSP Configuration Instructions

Create a new stack and select r_iic_master. Then, configure the I2C2 settings as shown below:

RT-Thread Settings Configuration

Enable the RT-Thread I2C driver framework and the IST8310 driver software package in the configuration.

Example Project Description

The magnetometer data communication is realized based on the driver software package IST8310.

Compilation & Download

• RT-Thread Studio: In RT-Thread Studio’s package manager, download the Titan Board resource package, create a new project, and compile it.

After compilation, connect the development board’s JLink interface to the PC and download the firmware to the development board.

Run Effect

Input ist8310_app command in serial port terminal:
