hi experts,

   In my hand, I have an i.mx53 smd board. It can boot linux without any display successfully.

   My question is :  is there the magnetometer in the board? I am not sure whether the magnetometer  is MAG3110 or MAG3112?

   Is there any demo application to test this magnetometer?

Thanks

mx53 uses MAG3110, for detailed information about this, you can refer to the chapter Chapter 38
MAG3110 Magnetometer Driver of enclosed file.

Thanks Joan,

I read this file.

But in this chapter, there is no detail information about describing how to test this mag3110 driver.

Is there any simple test application which I can simply open this mag3110 driver, and read the data from it?
