MAX44000 Class Reference

API for the MAX44000 Ambient and Infrared Proximity Sensor. More...

Detailed Description

• ID: max44000
• Name: MAX44000 Proximity Sensor
• Category: light
• Manufacturer: maxim
• Connection: i2c

Maxim Integrated* MAX44000 is an ambient and infrared proximity sensor. This module was tested on the Maxim Integrated MAX44000PMB1 PMOD module from the analog PMOD kit.

        upm_max44000.MAX44000 sensor = new upm_max44000.MAX44000(0);

        while (true) {
            System.out.println("proximity value = " + sensor.getAmbient());
            Thread.sleep(1000);
        }

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

MAX44000	(	int	bus,
		int	devAddr
	)

Instantiates an MAX44000 object

Parameters

bus	Number of the used bus
devAddr	Address of the used I2C device

Member Function Documentation

int getAmbient

(

)

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

int 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).

int i2cReadReg_16

(

int

reg

)

Reads a two-byte register

Parameters

reg	Address of the register

short i2cReadReg_8

(

int

reg

)

Reads a one-byte register

Parameters

reg	Address of the register

int i2cWriteReg	(	short	reg,
		short	value
	)

Writes to a one-byte register

Parameters

reg	Address of the register
value	Byte to be written

String name

(

)

Returns the name of the component
