This tutorial shows how to use an analog rotary potentiometer thru an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC), used as I2C device on the MB1136 evaluation kit.
- A STMicroelectronics evaluation board with STM32L152RU Cortex-M3 MCU, order code NUCLEO-L152RE (name on PCB: MB1136).
- USB 2.0 male to micro USB cable (supplied with evaluation kit).
- A full installation of an Hyperpanel OS release on a linux based PC including tools for flashing and debugging. This tutorial requires release V30.03.01 for MB1225 or higher. Hyperpanel OS releases are available for free in the “Download” section of the website.
- A Lunix PC with ARM gcc compiler, ARM gdb debugger and minicom installed.
- A text editor to edit or modify source codes (We are using vi in our demo).
- A ADS1115 Module 4 channels 16 bits I2C ADC (available on Amazon).
- An analog potentiometer. You can for exemple use the Gravity Analog Rotation Potentiometer Sensor for Arduino.
Hyperpanel OS V30.03.01 for MB1136 (hypv300301.zip) or higher, available in the Download section.
Binary file
– On www.tutorial.hyperpanel.com, select Download from the main menu.
– Download “Hyperpanel OS V30.03.01 for MB1136” or higher release for the MB1136 kit (hypv300301.zip).
– On yo ur PC Linux, copy and unzip the zip file in your root directory, for example:
cp hypv300301.zip /home/hyperpanel cd /home/hyperpanel unzip hypv300301.zip
– With a text editor, update hhome environment variable in the stm32m3 file:
cd /home/hyperpanel/hypv300301/shells vi stm32m3
Update the first line, according to your root directory:
export hhome=/home/hyperpanel/hypv300301
– Save this file and an execute the command:
source stm32m3
– From this tutorial, use the button “Binary file” to download the zip file containing the binary. Unzip this file:
unzip hpos-tuto512-bin.zip
– Copy this binary file in HyperPanelOS release:
cp potentiometer.bin ~/hypv300301/boards/stm32m3/exe
– Connect the analog rotary sensor data signal (orange wire) to pin 0 of the ADC (see image. Connect the analog rotary sensor power and ground(red and black wires) to the MB1136. Connect the ADC (power and data signals to the MB1136).

– Connect the MB1136 board to a USB port on your Linux PC using the USB cable supplied with the board. Wait for a window to appear, then close it.
– Open a Terminal window and run minicom to get access to the Hyperpanel OS serial port and to the application messages:
minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200
– Open another Terminal window on your computer and enter the following commands:
cd ~/hypv300301/shells source stm32m3 exe
– Upload software to the board:
hgdb romload stm32m3 potentiometer
You should see messages similar to these:

Wait until the flashing operation is complete (approx. 30 seconds). The last message (potentiometer.elf: No such file or directory) is normal.
– You can now press on the reset button (black button) of the MB1136. Hyperpanel OS and the application will start. You can turn the analog rotation sensor. The digital converter value, from 0 to 127 appears on the serial port.
To go further
If you want to edit the source code, write modifications, compile, link, etc., here’s how to do it :
- From this tutorial, use the button “Source code” to download the zip file containing the source file. Unzip this file:
unzip hpos-tuto512-source.zip
- Copy this source code in HyperPanelOS release:
cp potentiometer.c ~/hypv300301/user/stm32app
- Copy the link file in Hyperpanel release:
cp potentiometer.lst ~/hypv300301/boards/stm32m3/exe
- You can edit and make any modifications you want in the source file. For example, you can modify the calibration of the [0,…,127] values by changing the max value at the line 189 of the source file.
cd ~/hypv300301/user/stm32app vi potentiometer.c
- Save the source file.
- Compile the source file:
cd ~/hypv300301/user/stm32app cmm potentiometer
- Call the linker to create the new binary file:
exe lhypos potentiometer
- You can now upload this new binary to the board, in the same way as in the previous Installation chapter.
Potentiometer :
- The potentiometer send continuous voltage tension from [0v,…,3.3V]. This tension is converted by the ADC to a 16-bit value. The app is just a main loop who read this 16-bit value (I2C register) each 100 ms.
- At the position corresponding to minimum value, the potentiometer deliver 0V. At the maximum value, the potentiometer delivers 3.3V so we have to calibrate the ADC settings to this range.
Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) :
- The ADC use the potentiometer as analog input signal et send digital output data to the MB997D via I2C interface.
- The ADC converter include one single I2C device. There is 4 analog input channels. In this app we use Input 0 (data signal). This configuration is setted with bit 14-12 of the configuration register.
- We select FS=+/-4.096V for the PGA (Programmable gain amplifier) of the ADC (cf. datasheet of the ADC) to fit with range (0-3.3V] of the potentiometer.
2C Interface :
- I2C address are 0x90 (write) and 0x9 (read).
- The ADS1115 have a configuration register. The app write de configuration in the initialisation step, and read the configuration register to check that the write operation is ok. Configuration register is set as follow (see datasheet page 18/19/20).
