CircuitPython driver for the INA228 I2C 85V, 20-bit High or Low Side Power Monitor
Dependencies
=============
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://circuitpython.org/libraries>`_
or individual libraries can be installed using
`circup <https://github.com/adafruit/circup>`_.
`Purchase one from the Adafruit shop <http://www.adafruit.com/products/5832>`_
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-ina228/>`_.
To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ina228
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ina228
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ina228
Installing to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup
==========================================================
Make sure that you have ``circup`` installed in your Python environment.
Install it with the following command if necessary:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install circup
With ``circup`` installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the
following command to install:
.. code-block:: shell
circup install adafruit_ina228
Or the following command to update an existing version:
.. code-block:: shell
circup update
Usage Example
=============
.. code-block:: python
import time
import board
import adafruit_ina228
i2c = board.I2C()
ina228 = adafruit_ina228.INA228(i2c)
while True:
print(f"Current: {ina228.current:.2f} mA")
print(f"Bus Voltage: {ina228.voltage:.2f} V")
print(f"Shunt Voltage: {ina228.shunt_voltage*1000:.2f} mV")
print(f"Power: {ina228.power:.2f} mW")
print(f"Energy: {ina228.energy:.2f} J")
print(f"Temperature: {ina228.temperature:.2f} °C")
time.sleep(1)
