Overview

Package mcp3008helper is shared code for hooking an MCP3008 ADC up to a board. It is used in both the pi and genericlinux board implementations, but does not implement a board directly.

Types

type MCP3008AnalogConfig

type MCP3008AnalogConfig struct {
	Name              string `json:"name"`
	Pin               string `json:"pin"`         // analog input pin on the ADC itself
	SPIBus            string `json:"spi_bus"`     // name of the SPI bus (which is configured elsewhere in the config file)
	ChipSelect        string `json:"chip_select"` // the CS line for the ADC chip, typically a pin number on the board
	AverageOverMillis int    `json:"average_over_ms,omitempty"`
	SamplesPerSecond  int    `json:"samples_per_sec,omitempty"`
}

MCP3008AnalogConfig describes the configuration of a MCP3008 analog reader on a board.

func (*MCP3008AnalogConfig) Validate

func (config *MCP3008AnalogConfig) Validate(path string) error

Validate ensures all parts of the config are valid.

type MCP3008AnalogReader

type MCP3008AnalogReader struct {
	Channel int
	Bus     buses.SPI
	Chip    string
}

MCP3008AnalogReader implements a board.AnalogReader using an MCP3008 ADC via SPI.

func (*MCP3008AnalogReader) Close

func (mar *MCP3008AnalogReader) Close(ctx context.Context) error

Close does nothing.

func (*MCP3008AnalogReader) Read

func (mar *MCP3008AnalogReader) Read(ctx context.Context, extra map[string]interface{}) (value int, err error)

func (*MCP3008AnalogReader) Write

func (mar *MCP3008AnalogReader) Write(ctx context.Context, value int, extra map[string]interface{}) error
