How To Write A Driver (STM32, I2C, Datasheet) - Phil's Lab #30

How to write an I2C driver from scratch in C for an STM32F4 microcontroller interfacing with an accelerometer (Analog Devices ADXL355) using the datasheet and ST´s HAL (hardware abstraction layer).

Going through schematic, STM32CubeIDE setup, low-level functions, initialization, setting registers, reading registers, configuring the sensor, reading data, and finally testing the driver.
