3D magnetic sensor

Using Arduino Sensors
1

Hello everyone !

I want to detect magnetic fields using a 3D magnetic sensor from Infineon. The goal is simple, getting a magnetic fields following x-axisn y-axis, z-axis.

To do that, I wrote this code (I found some part on the internet tho).

#include <Tle493d_w2b6.h>

Tle493d_w2b6 Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor = Tle493d_w2b6();
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  while (!Serial);
  Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor.begin();
  Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor.enableTemp();
}

void loop() {
  Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor.updateData();

  Serial.print(Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor.getX());
  Serial.print(" ; ");
  Serial.print(Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor.getY());
  Serial.print(" ; ");
  Serial.println(Tle493dMagnetic3DSensor.getZ());
  
  delay(500);
}

But then, I only get a serie of the same value for each axis : -266,24...
Following that, there's the red LED that is lighted (mom told me whenever you see red things, start thinking about things not working joking), and my device is going really hot.
Could someone help me please ? :slight_smile:

Best regards.

Here's the instruction manual (I didn't find the datasheet).
Here's the GitHub link :GitHub - Infineon/TLV493D-A1B6-3DMagnetic-Sensor: Library for the TLV493D-A1B6 3D magnetic sensor for Arduino.

Nevermind guys, I found what was wrong, just to discover that there's another error.

The library I was using was not for this version of sensor.
So I downloaded the right library and such, and I'm currently using this code :

#include <Tlv493d.h>

// Tlv493d Opject
Tlv493d Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor = Tlv493d();

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  while(!Serial);
  Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.begin();
  Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.setAccessMode(Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.MASTERCONTROLLEDMODE);
  Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.disableTemp();
}

void loop() {
  delay(Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.getMeasurementDelay());
  Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.updateData();

  Serial.print(Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.getX());
  Serial.print(" ; ");
  Serial.print(Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.getY());
  Serial.print(" ; ");
  Serial.println(Tlv493dMagnetic3DSensor.getZ());
}

But here I go on an error like :

First time I'm seeing this, anyone ?

You are missing some code.

So I downloaded the right library and such,

Probably not, or not all of it.
