How to use ADC in Interrupt mode

Posted on 08/04/2018 by wp_2592768

–

In electronics, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC, A/D, or A-to-D) is a system that converts an analog signal, such as a sound picked up by a microphone or light entering a digital camera, into a digital signal.

There are several ADC architectures, in MCU normaly there are SAR (successive approximation register) and sometime SIGMA-DELTA (also known as a delta-sigma ADC).
SAR is very fast
SIGMA-DELTA is slow but is very precise

The stadard ADC in STM32 is SAR at 12bit but there ara also some STM32 that iclude also a SIGMA-DELTA ADC at 16bit.

Counting Modes

Normally a basic timer counts from zero to a given Period value.
General purpose and advanced timers can count in other different ways, as reported in Table below.

Change, from Arduino to STM32

Why change, from Arduino to STM32 ?

The answer to the above question is simple, for the computing power and the compatibility with the Arduino connectors.

I definitely do not want to convince anyone that it is time to move to a more modern and performing MCU family (Cortex Mx) but, if you found yourself in situations where you wanted to do more, then the STM32 family with its NUCLEO boards and mBed are the answer you have your wishes.

How to detect an object using the VL53L0X & X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 (evaboard)

Posted on 01/04/2018 by wp_2592768

The VL53L0X is a new generation Time-of-Flight (ToF) laser-ranging module housed in the smallest package on the market today, providing accurate distance measurement whatever the target reflectances unlike conventional technologies. It can measure absolute distances up to 2m, setting a new benchmark in ranging performance levels, opening the door to various new applications.

In this tutorial we will explain you how to use the X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 in conjunction of the NUCLEO-F401RE.
