Magnetometer Advanced Usage

Raw And Translated Data

Raw and translated magnetic field datas are available. Calling mpu925x_get_magnetic_field function also calls mpu925x_get_magnetic_field_raw function internally. Both functions stores data in given mpu925x_t struct.

void mpu925x_get_magnetic_field(mpu925x_t *mpu925x)

Get magnetic field in micro Gauss.

Parameters: mpu925x – MPU-925X struct pointer.

void mpu925x_get_magnetic_field_raw(mpu925x_t *mpu925x)

Get raw magnetic field data.

Parameters: mpu925x – MPU-925X struct pointer.

Measurement Mode

Operation mode is configurable. See AK8963’s datasheet for more info.

Warning

Other than continuous_measurement_mode_1 and continuous_measurement_mode_2, operating modes are not tested. Wait for full version of this driver to use them properly.

void mpu925x_set_magnetometer_measurement_mode(mpu925x_t *mpu925x, mpu925x_magnetometer_measurement_mode measurement_mode)

Set magnetometer measurement mode.

Bit Mode

Bit mode is configurable. See AK8963’s datasheet for more info.

void mpu925x_set_magnetometer_bit_mode(mpu925x_t *mpu925x, mpu925x_magnetometer_bit_mode bit_mode)

Set magnetometer bit mode.
