Description:

pyA20 0.2.12

Description
The package provide methods for controlling GPIO pins, I2C and SPI
buses. It’s written for
A20-OLinuXino-MICRO,
but it can be used with other boards. In this case proper operation is
not guaranteed. You can check
wiki for more
information.
Notes:


When using GPIO make sure that the desired gpio is not used by another periphery.
Using this library requires root access.




GPIO methods
The following methods are available:

init() - Make initialization of the module. Must be called first.
getcfg() - Read current configuration of gpio.
setcfg() - Write configuration to gpio.
input() - Return current value of gpio.
output() - Set output value.
pullup() - Set pull-up/pull-down.

The available constants are:

HIGH - 1
LOW - 0
INPUT - 0
OUPTUT - 1
PULLUP - 1
PULLDOWN - 2

The gpio are named two ways:

By port name: PH0, PG2, PE10, etc. These can be imported from port module:

>>> from pyA20.gpio import port
>>> dir(port)

By connector name and pin number: gpio2p12, gpio3p8, lcdp18, uext1p3 and etc:

>>> from pyA20.gpio import connector
>>> dir(connector)
Generally these constants are just an offset in the memory from the base
GPIO address, so they can be assigned to a number type variable.
>>> led = port.PH2
>>> print led
226


I2C methods

init() - Make initialization of the module
open() - Begin communication with slave device
read() - Read from slave device
write() - Write data to slave device
close() - End communication with slave device



SPI methods

open() - Open SPI bus with given configuration
read() - Read data from slave device without write
write() - Write data to slave device without read
xfer() - Do write and after that read
close() - Close SPI bus



Examples

GPIO
The example consist of: * Initialize gpio module * Initialize one gpio
as output and another one as input * Polling input state and write
corresponding output value
#!/usr/bin/env python

from pyA20.gpio import gpio
from pyA20.gpio import port
from pyA20.gpio import connector

gpio.init() #Initialize module. Always called first

gpio.setcfg(port.PG9, gpio.OUTPUT) #Configure LED1 as output
gpio.setcfg(port.PG9, 1) #This is the same as above

gpio.setcfg(port.PE11, gpio.INPUT) #Configure PE11 as input
gpio.setcfg(port.PE11, 0) #Same as above

gpio.pullup(port.PE11, 0) #Clear pullups
gpio.pullup(port.PE11, gpio.PULLDOWN) #Enable pull-down
gpio.pullup(port.PE11, gpio.PULLUP) #Enable pull-up

while True:
if gpio.input(port.PE11) == 1:
gpio.output(port.PG9, gpio.LOW)
gpio.output(port.PG9, 0)
else:
gpio.output(port.PG9, gpio.HIGH)
gpio.output(port.PG9, 1)


I2C
In this example: * I2C module is imported * Bus number 2 is opened *
Some data is written, then verified
#!/usr/bin/env python

from pyA20.i2c import i2c

i2c.init("/dev/i2c-2") #Initialize module to use /dev/i2c-2
i2c.open(0x55) #The slave device address is 0x55

#If we want to write to some register
i2c.write([0xAA, 0x20]) #Write 0x20 to register 0xAA
i2c.write([0xAA, 0x10, 0x11, 0x12]) #Do continuous write with start address 0xAA

#If we want to do write and read
i2c.write([0xAA]) #Set address at 0xAA register
value = i2c.read(1) #Read 1 byte with start address 0xAA

i2c.close() #End communication with slave device


SPI
In ths example: * SPI module is imported * Bus 2 with chip-select 0 is
opened * Some data is transfered to slave device
#!/usr/bin/env python

from pyA20.spi import spi

spi.open("/dev/spidev2.0")
#Open SPI device with default settings
# mode : 0
# speed : 100000kHz
# delay : 0
# bits-per-word: 8

#Different ways to open device
spi.open("/dev/spidev2.0", mode=1)
spi.open("/dev/spidev2.0", mode=2, delay=0)
spi.open("/dev/spidev2.0", mode=3, delay=0, bits_per_word=8)
spi.open("/dev/spidev2.0", mode=0, delay=0, bits_per_word=8, speed=100000)

spi.write([0x01, 0x02]) #Write 2 bytes to slave device
spi.read(2) #Read 2 bytes from slave device
spi.xfer([0x01, 0x02], 2) #Write 2 byte and then read 2 bytes.

spi.close() #Close SPI bus
