MAX44000PMB1 Demonstration¶

This demonstrates some of the capabilities of the MAX44000. This is written to work with the MAXREFDES72# adapter board and the MAX44000PMB1 peripheral module. It uses the standard Arduino pin names and it will compile for most arduino form-factor mbed boards. To run this demonstration you will need:

• MAX44000PMB1 Ambient Light / Proximity Sensor Peripheral Module
• MAXREFDES72# Pmod Adapter for Arduino Platforms
• An mbed enabled board with an Arduino compatible socket. We recommend the MAX32600MBED

In this demonstration the LEDs are changed based on data from the sensor.

• LED1 toggles when something is first detected by the proximity sensor.
• LED2 indicates when the Ambient Light Sensor reads greater than a set value (alsLim).
• LED3 will stay on whenever something is detected by the proximity sensor and stay on for an additional 5s after it is no longer detected.

Note: Some boards use D13 for an LED signal, so this example uses the second row (row B, pins 7 through 12) of the Pmod connector.
