Terminology
2.6.1
Linear acceleration sensitivity
Linear acceleration sensitivity describes the gain of the accelerometer sensor and can be
determined by applying 1 g acceleration to it. As the sensor can measure DC accelerations,
this can be done easily by pointing the axis of interest towards the center of the Earth,
noting the output value, rotating the sensor by 180 degrees (pointing to the sky) and noting
the output value again. By doing so, ±1 g acceleration is applied to the sensor. Subtracting
the larger output value from the smaller one, and dividing the result by 2, leads to the actual
sensitivity of the sensor. This value changes very little over temperature and also very little
over time. The sensitivity tolerance describes the range of sensitivities of a large population
of sensors.
2.6.2
Zero-g level
Zero-g level offset (TyOff) describes the deviation of an actual output signal from the ideal
output signal if no acceleration is present. A sensor in a steady-state on a horizontal surface
measures 0 g on the X axis and 0 g on the Y axis whereas the Z axis measures 1 g. The
output is ideally in the middle of the dynamic range of the sensor (content of OUT registers
00h, data expressed as two’s complement number). A deviation from the ideal value in this
case is called Zero-g offset. Offset is, to some extent, a result of stress to the MEMS sensor
and therefore the offset can slightly change after mounting the sensor onto a printed circuit
board or exposing it to extensive mechanical stress. Offset changes little over temperature,
see “Zero-g level change vs. temperature”. The Zero-g level tolerance (TyOff) describes the
standard deviation of the range of Zero-g levels of a population of sensors.

LSM303DLHC
Functionality
The LSM303DLHC is a system-in-package featuring a 3D digital linear acceleration and 3D
digital magnetic field detection sensor.
The system includes specific sensing elements and an IC interface capable of measuring
both the linear acceleration and magnetic field applied to it and providing a signal to the
external world through an I2C serial interface with separated digital output.
The sensing system is manufactured using specialized micromachining processes, while
the IC interfaces are manufactured using CMOS technology that allows designing a
dedicated circuit which is trimmed to better match the sensing element characteristics.
The LSM303DLHC features two data-ready signals (RDY) which indicate when a new set of
measured acceleration data and magnetic data are available, therefore simplifying data
synchronization in the digital system that uses the device.
The LSM303DLHC may also be configured to generate a free-fall interrupt signal according
to a programmed acceleration event along the enabled axes.
Linear acceleration operating mode
The LSM303DLHC provides two different acceleration operating modes: “normal mode” and
“low-power mode”. While normal mode guarantees high resolution, low-power mode further
reduces current consumption.
Table 8 summarizes how to select the operating mode.

Factory calibration
The IC interface is factory calibrated for linear acceleration sensitivity (LA_So), and linear
acceleration Zero-g level (LA_TyOff).
The trim values are stored inside the device in nonvolatile memory. Any time the device is
turned on, the trimming parameters are downloaded into the registers to be used during
normal operation. This allows the user to use the device without further calibration.

Capacitors
The C1 and C2 external capacitors should be low SR value ceramic type constructions (typ.
recommended value 200 mOhm). Reservoir capacitor C1 is nominally 4.7 μF in
capacitance, with the set/reset capacitor C2 nominally 0.22 F in capacitance.
The device core is supplied through the Vdd line. Power supply decoupling capacitors
(C4 = 100 nF ceramic, C3 = 10 μF Al) should be placed as near as possible to the supply
pin of the device (common design practice). All the voltage and ground supplies must be
present at the same time to have proper behavior of the IC (refer to Figure 4).
The functionality of the device and the measured acceleration/magnetic field data are
selectable and accessible through the I2C interface.
The functions, the threshold, and the timing of the two interrupt pins (INT1 and INT2) can be
completely programmed by the user through the I2C interface.
4.2
Pull-up resistors
Pull-up resistors (recommended value 10 kOhm) are placed on the two I2C bus lines.

Digital interface power supply
This digital interface, dedicated to the linear acceleration and to the magnetic field signal, is
capable of operating with a standard power supply (Vdd) or using a dedicated power supply
(Vdd_IO).
4.4
Soldering information
The LGA package is compliant with the ECOPACK®, RoHS, and “Green” standard.
It is qualified for soldering heat resistance according to JEDEC J-STD-020.
Leave “Pin 1 Indicator” unconnected during soldering.
Land pattern and soldering recommendations are available at www.st.com/mems.
4.5
High-current wiring effects
High current in the wiring and printed circuit traces can be culprits in causing errors in
magnetic field measurements for compassing.
Conductor-generated magnetic fields add to the Earth’s magnetic field, causing errors in
compass-heading computation.
Keep currents higher than 10 mA a few millimeters further away from the sensor IC.

I2C serial interface
The LSM303DLHC I2C is a bus slave. The I2C is employed to write the data into the
registers whose content can also be read back.
The relevant I2C terminology is given in the table below.

Slave
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.

LSM303DLHC
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 bit
8 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.
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 obliged to generate an acknowledge after each byte of data
received.
The I2C embedded inside the LSM303DLHC 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 (SUB) is transmitted; the
7 LSBs represent the actual register address while the MSB enables address autoincrement. If the MSB of the SUB field is ‘1’, the SUB (register address) is automatically
increased to allow multiple data Read/Write.

DATA
Data are transmitted in byte format (DATA). Each data transfer contains 8 bits. The number
of bytes transferred per transfer is unlimited. Data is transferred with the most significant bit
(MSB) first. If a receiver can’t 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 doesn’t 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.

Digital interfaces
Linear acceleration digital interface
For linear acceleration the default (factory) 7-bit slave address is 0011001b.
The slave address is completed with a Read/Write bit. If the bit is ‘1’ (read), a repeated
START (SR) condition must be issued after the two sub-address bytes; if the bit is ‘0’ (write)
the master transmits to the slave with the direction unchanged. Table 14 explains how the
read/write bit pattern is composed, listing all the possible configurations.

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 presented communication format, MAK is master acknowledge and NMAK is no
master acknowledge.

Magnetic field digital interface
For magnetic sensors the default (factory) 7-bit slave address is 0011110xb.
The slave address is completed with a Read/Write bit. If the bit is ‘1’ (read), a repeated
START (SR) condition must be issued after the two sub-address bytes. If the bit is ‘0’ (write)
the master transmits to the slave with the direction unchanged. Table 16 explains how the
SAD is composed.

Magnetic signal interface reading/writing
The interface uses an address pointer to indicate which register location is to be read from
or written to. These pointer locations are sent from the master to this slave device and
succeed the 7-bit address plus 1 bit Read/Write identifier.
To minimize the communication between the master and magnetic digital interface of
LSM303DLHC, the address pointer updates automatically without master intervention.
This automatic address pointer update has two additional features. First, when address 12
or higher is accessed, the pointer updates to address 00, and secondly, when address 08 is
reached, the pointer rolls back to address 03. Logically, the address pointer operation
functions as shown below.
If (address pointer = 08) then the address pointer = 03
Or else, if (address pointer >= 12) then the address pointer = 0
Or else, (address pointer) = (address pointer) + 1
The address pointer value itself cannot be read via the I2C bus.
Any attempt to read an invalid address location returns 0, and any write to an invalid
address location, or an undefined bit within a valid address location, is ignored by this
device.

Difference between AOI-6D = ‘01’ and AOI-6D = ‘11’.
AOI-6D = ‘01’ is movement recognition. An interrupt is generated when the orientation
moves from an unknown zone to a known zone. The interrupt signal remains for a duration
ODR.
AOI-6D = ‘11’ is direction recognition. An interrupt is generated when the orientation is
inside a known zone. The interrupt signal stays until the orientation is inside the zone.
