Variables

var INVALID invalidPin

INVALID implements both PinADC and PinDAC and fails on all access.

Types

type PinADC

type PinADC interface {
	pin.Pin
	// Range returns the maximum supported range [min, max] of the values.
	//
	// It is possible for a DAC that the Sample.V value is not set.
	Range() (Sample, Sample)
	// Read returns the current pin level.
	Read() (Sample, error)
}

PinADC is an analog-to-digital-conversion input.

type PinDAC

type PinDAC interface {
	pin.Pin
	// Range returns the maximum supported range [min, max] of the values.
	//
	// It is possible for a DAC that the Sample.V value is not set.
	Range() (Sample, Sample)
	// Out sets an analog output value.
	Out(v int32) error
}

PinDAC is an digital-to-analog-conversion output.

type Sample

type Sample struct {
	// V is the interpreted electrical tension.
	V physic.ElectricPotential
	// Raw is the raw measurement.
	Raw int32
}

Sample is one analog sample.

Raw must be set, but V may or may not be set, depending if the device knows the electrical tension this measurement represents.
