3D Hall (Magnetic sensor) Forum Discussions

Hi,

I'm working with the mentioned generic library software for TLx493d, downloaded from the infineon homepage (see picture in attachment)

There I´ve found an error in the AW2B6 sub-category:

In the init function:  TLE493D_AW2B6_init (file: TLE_AW2B6.c)

The configurable bits of the address are added into the register and afterwards when the other config bits of the register are set, an | is missing in line 228 (should be |= instead of =), which causes the set address-bits to be overwritten with zeros again and sensors are always set to A0 address independent from which address was chosen before or which version sensor(A0-A4) was used.

Please forward this to the right person to have it fixed, as it was a bit tricky to find and prevend other people from having those issues.

Thanks.

We were previously using your TLV493d sensor and had that working fine but the power consumption was too high for our needs, therefore, we are trying to move to the TLE493d with the Wake Up functionality.
It took a while to find the correct I2C sensor address of 0x22 but now I can finally talk to the sensor.
However, when taking readings from the senor it is sending a response of 0xFF for all registers.

I have tried using 2-byte read (supposed default) as well as 1-byte read just in case.

I really need to have this working as soon as possible so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you. Show Less
