All, I'm working on a Beaglebone Black project using a MEMS accelerometer chip, the ADXL312.
The accelerometer has a pin which goes active each time a new data sample is available to be read. It runs at 3200 Hz. (about 1/3 of a ms per sample) The pin is connected to a GPIO input and I've written code to monitor this pin and grab the data each time. The sampling normally runs for several seconds continuously. The problem is, every once in a while Linux gets busy and apparently interrupts my code and I miss samples. (an overrun bit lets me know this is happening) I'm looking for ideas on how to improve this so data samples are not missed. Any ideas?
