lps33thw sensor driver

Hi All,


As already mentioned in the previous e-mail regarding the lps33hw driver and LPS22HB sensor, I would like to point out
that also the LPS22HH sensor is already supported by the lps33thw driver since the registers map and the functionalities
are the same, only the package type changes (one is for general purpose the other is for water proof application) and this
does not impact the driver's source code

If we wanted to declare in mynewt also the support for the sensors LPS22HB and LPS22HH how would you suggest to
proceed:

- Rewriting the drivers for LPS22HB and LPS22HH starting from the LPS33HW and LPS33THW drivers respectively and
  pushing that as new drivers (in this case the code will be replicated just changing the API name) (I think it's not a the
  best way) ?

or

- Adding in the drivers documentation of LPS33HW and LPS33THW the support of the LPS22HB and LPS22HH sensors ?


Best Regrds,
Mario

Hi All,


I was trying to figure out how to organize the work to add support to MyNewT for the new MEMS sensors produced

by STMicroelectronics and I came across the lps33hw driver (hw / driver / sensors / lps33hw) which actually also supports

the part number LPS22HB, in fact both devices have

    - the same Who am I

    - same functionalities

    - same register map and bitmap

these devices differ only by the case type because LPS33HW is for water proof application while LPS22HB is for generic

usage.

Would it be possible to indicate in the documentation that the lps33hw driver into the distro supports both LPS33HW and

LPS22HB devices (?)


Best Regards,

Mario
