Hi,
I am developing a device that uses two tri-axial accelerometers. I need to measure the six signals simultaneously and react in “real-time” (i.e., with minimal delay). I have tried using analog accelerometers connected to the MSP-EXP430FR5994, but switching analog channels requires a long settling time. I have tried digital accelerometers where I can read three signals (x-y-z) at once from one accelerometer, but there is an unacceptable delay when I switch to the second accelerometer (by then my device has changed behaviour/position). I don’t think a simple multiplexer (MUX) will help since I would still need to switch between the six channels.
Can anyone suggest the proper way to do this and the device to use? I don’t know if I need something with a sample and hold feature or what.
Thanks,
Larry
