CircuitPython helper library for the TLV493D 3-axis magnetometer

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>_
• Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>_
• Register <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Register>_

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>_.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-tlv493d/>_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tlv493d

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

.. code-block:: shell

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-tlv493d

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-tlv493d

Usage Example

.. code-block:: python3

import time
import board
import adafruit_tlv493d

i2c = board.I2C()  # uses board.SCL and board.SDA
tlv = adafruit_tlv493d.TLV493D(i2c)

while True:
    print("X: %s, Y:%s, Z:%s uT"%tlv.magnetic)
    time.sleep(1)
