Introduction
This user manual gives an overview of the use of STEVAL-IFS001V1 kit with MEMS (Micro-
Electro-Mechanical System) evaluation board.
As shown in the next section, this evaluation board consists of the DK3420 (uPSD
evaluation board) and the ST-MEMS-xx-EVAL (MEMS evaluation module). When connected
together as an evaluation kit, MEMS applications can be evaluated and measured through a
USB connection to a PC. A brief introduction to the MEMS software, MEMS USB Reader
7.x, is also provided.
MEMS can be used in a variety of vibration sensor and intelligent movement estimator
situations, for example:
Vibration analysis
– Motor control
– High buildings
Control of position
– Stability system for caravans
– Stability for cable cars
Sport
– Sport shoes
– Speedometers
Automotive
– Black box
– Intelligent driver sensors
– Car alarms
Navigation
– Dead-reckoning for GPS
Logistics
– Blackbox for containers (sensoring)
Robotics
– Control of robot arms (welding robots)
Security
– Vibration detection (broken window alarm)

  • Page 8: Recommendations For I2C Use

    I2C and SPI use STEVAL-IFS001V1 Recommendations for I C use ● With I C, the use of R36 & R37 pull-up resistors (4k7) is advised ● The use of resistor R34 (10k) is not normally necessary as uPSD has an internal pull- up of around 100k.
  • Page 9: Upsd Software Use

    STEVAL-IFS001V1 uPSD software use uPSD software use Digital or analog module The program automatically detects whether a module is digital or analog. The recognition is based on the value on pin P3.3. A digital module has this pin unconnected which is the same as logic ‘1’ because of an internal uPSD pull-up. Analog modules must employ a pull-down resistor to enable the detection of logic ‘0’.
