class pyupm_max44000.MAX44000(bus, devAddr=74)

Bases: object

API for the MAX44000 Ambient and Infrared Proximity Sensor.

ID: max44000

Name: Ambient and Infrared Proximity Sensor

Category: light

Manufacturer: maxim

Connection: i2c

Link:https://www.maximintegrated.com/en/products/analog/sensors-and- sensor- interface/MAX44000.html Maxim Integrated*MAX44000 is an ambient and infrared proximity sensor. This module was tested on the Maxim IntegratedMAX44000PMB1 PMOD module from the analog PMOD kit.

C++ includes: max44000.hpp

getAmbient()

uint16_t getAmbient()

Reads the ambient value from the sensor (based on ambient data).

getProximity()

uint16_t getProximity()

MAX44000 object destructor; basically, it closes the I2C connection. ~MAX44000 (); no need for the destructor - the I2c connection will be closed when m_i2cMaxControlCtx variable will be out of context Reads the proximity value from the sensor (based on ambient data).

i2cReadReg_16(reg)

uint16_t i2cReadReg_16(int reg)

Reads a two-byte register

reg: Address of the register

i2cReadReg_8(reg)

uint8_t i2cReadReg_8(int reg)

Reads a one-byte register

reg: Address of the register

i2cWriteReg(reg, value)

mraa::Result i2cWriteReg(uint8_t reg, uint8_t value)

Writes to a one-byte register

reg: Address of the register

value: Byte to be written

name()

std::string name()

Returns the name of the component
