Adafruit CircuitPython driver for the MLX90393 3-axis magnetometer.

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939

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

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90939

Usage Example

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)
