EasyPull click

EasyPull Click is a compact add-on board designed to easily configure mikroBUS™ signals into pull-up or pull-down states, perfect for various applications. It features a universal setup with 4.7kΩ resistors to ensure stable performance across vital communication lines such as SPI, UART, I2C, and standard mikroBUS™ signals (AN, RST, PWM, INT).

Click library

• Author : Stefan Ilic
• Date : Dec 2023.
• Type : GPIO type

Software Support

We provide a library for the EasyPull Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for EasyPull Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• easypull_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

  void easypull_cfg_setup ( easypull_cfg_t *cfg );

• easypull_init Initialization function.

  err_t easypull_init ( easypull_t *ctx, easypull_cfg_t *cfg );

Example key functions :

• easypull_get_an_pin This function reads the state of the AN pin of EasyPull click board.

  uint8_t easypull_get_an_pin ( easypull_t *ctx );

• easypull_get_rst_pin This function reads the state of the RST pin of EasyPull click board.

  uint8_t easypull_get_rst_pin ( easypull_t *ctx );

• easypull_get_cs_pin This function reads the state of the CS pin of EasyPull click board.

  uint8_t easypull_get_cs_pin ( easypull_t *ctx );

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of EasyPull Click boards.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes the driver and USB UART logger.

void application_init ( void ) 
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    easypull_cfg_t easypull_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    easypull_cfg_setup( &easypull_cfg );
    EASYPULL_MAP_MIKROBUS( easypull_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    if ( DIGITAL_OUT_UNSUPPORTED_PIN == easypull_init( &easypull, &easypull_cfg ) ) 
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }

    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

It checks the state of the pins and displays their state on the USB UART.

void application_task ( void ) 
{
    if ( EASYPULL_PIN_STATE_HIGH == easypull_get_an_pin( &easypull ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " AN pin state: HIGH \n" );
    }
    else
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " AN pin state: LOW \n" );
    }

    if ( EASYPULL_PIN_STATE_HIGH == easypull_get_rst_pin( &easypull ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " RST pin state: HIGH \n" );
    }
    else
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " RST pin state: LOW \n" );
    }

    if ( EASYPULL_PIN_STATE_HIGH == easypull_get_cs_pin( &easypull ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " CS pin state: HIGH \n" );
    }
    else
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " CS pin state: LOW \n" );
    }

    if ( EASYPULL_PIN_STATE_HIGH == easypull_get_pwm_pin( &easypull ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " PWM pin state: HIGH \n" );
    }
    else
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " PWM pin state: LOW \n" );
    }

    if ( EASYPULL_PIN_STATE_HIGH == easypull_get_int_pin( &easypull ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " INT pin state: HIGH \n" );
    }
    else
    {
        log_printf( &logger, " INT pin state: LOW \n" );
    }
    log_printf( &logger, "- - - - - - - - - - - - - \r\n" );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );

}

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

• MikroSDK.Board
• MikroSDK.Log
• Click.EasyPull

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
