NAME `Device::BusPirate::Chip::MPL3115A2' - use a MPL3115A2 chip with `Device::BusPirate' DESCRIPTION This Device::BusPirate::Chip subclass provides specific communication to a Freescale Semiconductor MPL3115A2 chip attached to the Bus Pirate via I2C. The reader is presumed to be familiar with the general operation of this chip; the documentation here will not attempt to explain or define chip-specific concepts or features, only the use of this module to access them. ACCESSORS The following methods documented with a trailing call to `->get' return Future instances. $config = $mpl->read_config->get Returns a `HASH' reference of the contents of control registers `CTRL_REG1' to `CTRL_REG3', using fields named from the data sheet. $mpl->change_config( %changes )->get Writes updates to the control registers `CTRL_REG1' to `CTRL_REG3'. This will be performed as a read-modify-write operation, so any fields not given as arguments to this method will retain their current values. Note that these two methods use a cache of configuration bytes to make subsequent modifications more efficient. This cache will not respect the "one-shot" nature of the `OST' and `RST' bits. $pressure = $mpl->get_sealevel_pressure->get $mpl->set_sealevel_pressure->get( $pressure ) Read or write the barometric pressure calibration register which is used to convert pressure to altitude when the chip is in altimeter mode, in Pascals. The default value is 101,326 Pa. $pressure = $mpl->read_pressure->get Returns the value of the `OUT_P_*' registers, suitably converted into Pascals. (The chip must be in barometer mode and must *not* be in `RAW' mode for the conversion to work). $altitude = $mpl->read_altitude->get Returns the value of the `OUT_P_*' registers, suitably converted into metres. (The chip must be in altimeter mode and must *not* be in `RAW' mode for the conversion to work). $temperature = $mpl->read_temperature->get Returns the value of the `OUT_T_*' registers, suitable converted into degrees C. (The chip must *not* be in `RAW' mode for the conversion to work). $pressure = $mpl->read_min_pressure->get $pressure = $mpl->read_max_pressure->get Returns the values of the `P_MIN' and `P_MAX' registers, suitably converted into Pascals. $mpl->clear_min_pressure->get $mpl->clear_max_pressure->get Clear the `P_MIN' or `P_MAX' registers, resetting them to start again from the next measurement. $altitude = $mpl->read_min_altitude->get $altitude = $mpl->read_max_altitude->get Returns the values of the `P_MIN' and `P_MAX' registers, suitably converted into metres. $mpl->clear_min_altitude->get $mpl->clear_max_altitude->get Clear the `P_MIN' or `P_MAX' registers, resetting them to start again from the next measurement. $temperature = $mpl->read_min_temperature->get $temperature = $mpl->read_max_temperature->get Returns the values of the `T_MIN' and `T_MAX' registers, suitably converted into metres. $mpl->clear_min_temperature->get $mpl->clear_max_temperature->get Clear the `T_MIN' or `T_MAX' registers, resetting them to start again from the next measurement. METHODS $mpl->check_id->get Reads the `WHO_AM_I' register and checks for a valid ID result. The returned future fails if the expected result is not received. $mpl->start_oneshot->get Sets the `OST' bit of `CTRL_REG1' to start a one-shot measurement when in standby mode. After calling this method you will need to use `busywait_oneshot' to wait for the measurement to finish, or rely somehow on the interrupts. $mpl->busywait_oneshot->get Repeatedly reads the `OST' bit of `CTRL_REG1' until it becomes clear. $mpl->oneshot->get A convenient wrapper around `start_oneshot' and `busywait_oneshot'.
