Digital interfaces

The registers embedded inside the LSM303DLH are accessible through two separate I2C

serial interfaces: one for the accelerometer core and the other for the magnetometer core.

The two interfaces can be connected together on the PCB.

7.1

I2C serial interface

The LSM303DLH 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.

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.
