Adafruit CircuitPython driver for the MLX90393 3-axis magnetometer.
This driver depends on:
Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>
_Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>
_Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>
_.
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939/>
_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939
.. code-block:: python3
import time
import board
import adafruit_mlx90393
i2c = board.I2C() # uses board.SCL and board.SDA
SENSOR = adafruit_mlx90393.MLX90393(i2c, gain=adafruit_mlx90393.GAIN_1X)
while True:
MX, MY, MZ = SENSOR.magnetic
print("[{}]".format(time.monotonic()))
print("X: {} uT".format(MX))
print("Y: {} uT".format(MY))
print("Z: {} uT".format(MZ))
# Display the status field if an error occured, etc.
if SENSOR.last_status > adafruit_mlx90393.STATUS_OK:
SENSOR.display_status()
time.sleep(1.0)
