Description
The L3GD20 is a low-power three-axis angular rate sensor. It includes a sensing element and an IC interface capable of providing the measured angular rate to the external world through a digital interface (I2C/SPI). The sensing element is manufactured using a dedicated micro-machining process developed by STMicroelectronics to produce inertial sensors and actuators on silicon wafers. The IC interface is manufactured using a CMOS process that allows a high level of integration to design a dedicated circuit which is trimmed to better match the sensing element characteristics. The L3GD20 has a full scale of ±250/±500/ ±2000 dps and is capable of measuring rates with a user-selectable bandwidth. The L3GD20 is available in a plastic land grid array (LGA) package and can operate within a temperature range of -40 °C to +85 °C.

Terminology
Sensitivity
An angular rate gyroscope is a device that produces a positive-going digital output for counter-clockwise rotation around the sensitive axis considered. Sensitivity describes the gain of the sensor and can be determined by applying a defined angular velocity to it. This value changes very little over temperature and time.
2.6.2
Zero-rate level
Zero-rate level describes the actual output signal if there is no angular rate present. Zerorate level of precise MEMS sensors is, to some extent, a result of stress to the sensor and therefore zero-rate level can slightly change after mounting the sensor onto a printed circuit board or after exposing it to extensive mechanical stress. This value changes very little over temperature and time.

FIFO
The L3GD20 embeds 32 slots of 16-bit data FIFO for each of the three output channels: yaw, pitch and roll. This allows consistent power saving for the system, since the host processor does not need to continuously poll data from the sensor, but can wake up only when needed and burst the significant data out from the FIFO. This buffer can work accordingly in five different modes: Bypass mode, FIFO mode, Stream mode, Bypass-toStream mode and Stream-to-FIFO mode. Each mode is selected by the FIFO_MODE bits in the FIFO_CTRL_REG (2Eh). Programmable Watermark level, FIFO_empty or FIFO_Full events can be enabled to generate dedicated interrupts on the DRDY/INT2 pin (configured through CTRL_REG3 (22h) and event detection information is available in FIFO_SRC_REG (2Fh). Watermark level can be configured to WTM4:0 in FIFO_CTRL_REG (2Eh).

A watermark interrupt can be enabled (I2_WMK bit into CTRL_REG3 (22h)) in order to be raised when the FIFO is filled to the level specified in the WTM 4:0 bits of FIFO_CTRL_REG (2Eh). The FIFO continues filling until it is full (32 slots of 16-bit data for yaw, pitch and roll). When full, the FIFO stops collecting data from the input channels. To restart data collection, the FIFO_CTRL_REG (2Eh) must be written back to Bypass mode. FIFO mode is represented in Figure 8: FIFO mode.

Retrieve data from FIFO
FIFO data is read through OUT_X (Addr reg 28h,29h), OUT_Y (Addr reg 2Ah,2Bh) and OUT_Z (Addr reg 2Ch,2Dh). When the FIFO is in Stream, Trigger or FIFO mode, a read operation of the OUT_X, OUT_Y or OUT_Z registers provides the data stored in the FIFO. Each time data is read from the FIFO, the oldest pitch, roll and yaw data is placed in the OUT_X, OUT_Y and OUT_Z registers and both single read and read_burst (X,Y & Z with auto-incrementing address) operations can be used. When data included in OUT_Z_H (2Dh) is read, the system restarts to read information from addr OUT_X_L (28h).

Digital interfaces
The registers embedded in the L3GD20 may be accessed through both the I2C and SPI serial interfaces. The latter may be SW-configured to operate either in 3-wire or 4-wire interface mode. The serial interfaces are mapped onto the same pins. To select/exploit the I2C interface, the CS line must be tied high (i.e connected to Vdd_IO). Table 9. Serial interface pin description

I2C serial interface
The L3GD20 I2C is a bus slave. The I2C is employed to write data into registers whose content can also be read back. The relevant I2C terminology is given in the table below. Table 10.
Term Transmitter Receiver Master Slave
I2C terminology
Description The device which sends data to the bus The device which receives data from the bus The device which initiates a transfer, generates clock signals and terminates a transfer The device addressed by the master
There are two signals associated with the I2C bus: the serial clock line (SCL) and the serial data line (SDA). The latter is a bidirectional line used for sending and receiving the data to/from the interface. Both lines must be connected to Vdd_IO through external pull-up resistors. When the bus is free, both lines are high. The I2C interface is compliant with fast mode (400 kHz) I2C standards as well as with normal mode.

Digital interfaces
5.1.1
I2C operation
The transaction on the bus is started through a START (ST) signal. A START condition is defined as a HIGH to LOW transition on the data line while the SCL line is held HIGH. After this has been transmitted by the Master, the bus is considered busy. The next byte of data transmitted after the start condition contains the address of the slave in the first 7 bits and the eighth bit tells whether the Master is receiving data from the slave or transmitting data to the slave. When an address is sent, each device in the system compares the first seven bits after a start condition with its address. If they match, the device considers itself addressed by the Master. The Slave ADdress (SAD) associated with the L3GD20 is 110101xb. The SDO pin can be used to modify the less significant bit of the device address. If the SDO pin is connected to voltage supply, LSb is ‘1’ (address 1101011b). Otherwise, if the SDO pin is connected to ground, the LSb value is ‘0’ (address 1101010b). This solution allows to connect and address two different gyroscopes to the same I2C bus. Data transfer with acknowledge is mandatory. The transmitter must release the SDA line during the acknowledge pulse. The receiver must then pull the data line LOW so that it remains stable low during the HIGH period of the acknowledge clock pulse. A receiver which has been addressed is obligated to generate an acknowledge after each byte of data received. The I2C embedded in the L3GD20 behaves like a slave device and the following protocol must be adhered to. After the start condition (ST) a slave address is sent, once a slave acknowledge (SAK) has been returned, an 8-bit sub-address is transmitted: the 7 LSb represent the actual register address while the MSb enables address auto-increment. If the MSb of the SUB field is 1, the SUB (register address) will be automatically incremented to allow multiple data read/write. The slave address is completed with a Read/Write bit. If the bit was ‘1’ (Read), a repeated START (SR) condition must be issued after the two sub-address bytes; if the bit is ‘0’ (Write) the master will transmit to the slave with direction unchanged. Table 11 explains how the SAD+Read/Write bit pattern is composed, listing all the possible configurations. Table 11. SAD+read/write patterns

Data is transmitted in byte format (DATA). Each data transfer contains 8 bits. The number of bytes sent per transfer is unlimited. Data is transferred with the most significant bit (MSb) first. If a receiver cannot receive another complete byte of data until it has performed some other function, it can hold the clock line, SCL, LOW to force the transmitter into a wait state. Data transfer only continues when the receiver is ready for another byte and releases the data line. If a slave receiver does not acknowledge the slave address (i.e. it is not able to receive because it is performing some real-time function) the data line must be left HIGH by the slave. The Master can then abort the transfer. A LOW to HIGH transition on the SDA line while the SCL line is HIGH is defined as a STOP condition. Each data transfer must be terminated by the generation of a STOP (SP) condition. In order to read multiple bytes, it is necessary to assert the most significant bit of the subaddress field. In other words, SUB(7) must be equal to ‘1’ while SUB(6-0) represents the address of the first register to be read. In the communication format presented, MAK is Master Acknowledge and NMAK is No Master Acknowledge.
5.2
SPI bus interface
The SPI is a bus slave. The SPI allows writing and reading the registers of the device. The serial interface interacts with the outside world through 4 wires: CS, SPC, SDI and SDO.

CS is the Serial Port Enable and is controlled by the SPI master. It goes low at the start of the transmission and goes back high at the end. SPC is the Serial Port Clock and it is controlled by the SPI master. It is stopped high when CS is high (no transmission). SDI and SDO are respectively the Serial Port Data Input and Output. Those lines are driven at the falling edge of SPC and should be captured at the rising edge of SPC. Both the Read Register and Write Register commands are completed in 16 clock pulses or in multiples of 8 in case of multiple bytes read/write. Bit duration is the time between two falling edges of SPC. The first bit (bit 0) starts at the first falling edge of SPC after the falling edge of CS while the last bit (bit 15, bit 23, ...) starts at the last falling edge of SPC just before the rising edge of CS. bit 0: RW bit. When 0, the data DI(7:0) is written to the device. When 1, the data DO(7:0) from the device is read. In the latter case, the chip will drive SDO at the start of bit 8. bit 1: MS bit. When 0, the address remains unchanged in multiple read/write commands. When 1, the address will be auto-incremented in multiple read/write commands. bit 2-7: address AD(5:0). This is the address field of the indexed register. bit 8-15: data DI(7:0) (write mode). This is the data that will be written to the device (MSb first). bit 8-15: data DO(7:0) (read mode). This is the data that will be read from the device (MSb first). In multiple read/write commands, further blocks of 8 clock periods will be added. When the MS bit is 0, the address used to read/write data remains the same for every block. When the MS bit is 1, the address used to read/write data is incremented at every block. The function and the behavior of SDI and SDO remain unchanged.
