This is the page for the SRF08 Ultrasonic Ranger, with I2C interface.

It is available at a number of places including :

The datasheet can be found from the Rapid Electronics website, or there is a good resources at Robot Electronics

int main() {

    while (1) {
       printf("Measured range : %.2f cm\n",srf08.read());
       wait(0.1);
    }

If you need a Sonar sensor, you might also consider the Maxbotix EZ series Sonar modules (www.maxbotix.com) . It is smaller and has an analog out, so a single analog in pin can read it. It will run off 3.3V. Phidgets and Robotics Connection also sells them.

How you have connected the SRF08 to mbed? I have read the DS of SRF08 and it work at 5 Volts, but the I2C port of mbed are at 3.3 Volts? I know that there are special IC for the change in level from 5 to 3.3 volts for use on the I2C BUS, you used one of this?

I am trying to compile the program but I get this error: " Undefined symbol main (referred from rtentry2.o)." in file "/", do not know how to solve it?

First check if your code syntax is correct, I think you write something wrong in the "main" definition. If you don't resolve, post your code here.

I manage to compile the program but It doesn't show the "prinf".

  1. include "mbed.h"
  2. include "SRF08.h"

SRF08 srf08(p9, p10, 0xE0); Define SDA, SCL pin and I2C address

int main() {

while (1) { printf("Measured range : %.2f cm\n",srf08.read()); wait(0.1); }

}

How can I see it?

Thank you so much for your help.
