CHIP_IO
============================
A CHIP GPIO library
NOTE: Now requires the custom DTC to install the library
Manual::
For Python2.7::
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git build-essential python-dev python-pip flex bison chip-dt-overlays -y
git clone https://github.com/atenart/dtc
cd dtc
make
sudo make install PREFIX=/usr
cd ..
git clone git://github.com/xtacocorex/CHIP_IO.git
cd CHIP_IO
sudo python setup.py install
cd ..
sudo rm -rf CHIP_IO
For Python3::
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git build-essential python3-dev python3-pip flex bison chip-dt-overlays -y
git clone https://github.com/atenart/dtc
cd dtc
make
sudo make install PREFIX=/usr
cd ..
git clone git://github.com/xtacocorex/CHIP_IO.git
cd CHIP_IO
sudo python3 setup.py install
cd ..
sudo rm -rf CHIP_IO
**Usage**
Using the library is very similar to the excellent RPi.GPIO library used on the Raspberry Pi. Below are some examples.
All scripts that require GPIO, PWM (HW and/or SW), and Overlay Manager need to be run with super user permissions!
**Allowable Pin Names for the Library**
The following "table" is the allowable pin names that are able to be used by the library. The Name column is the normal name used on the CHIP Headers, the Alt Name column is the value used by the PocketCHIP header (if it's broken out), and the Key is the Header and Pin Number the the Pin is physically located. Either of these 3 means is able to specify a pin in CHIP_IO.

**GPIO Setup**
Import the library, and setup as GPIO.OUT or GPIO.IN::
import CHIP_IO.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setup("CSID0", GPIO.OUT)
You can also refer to the pin number::
GPIO.setup("U14_31", GPIO.OUT)
You can also refer to the bin based upon its alternate name::
GPIO.setup("GPIO1", GPIO.IN)
**GPIO Debug**
Debug can be enabled/disabled by the following command::
# Enable Debug
GPIO.toggle_debug()
**GPIO Output**
Setup the pin for output, and write GPIO.HIGH or GPIO.LOW. Or you can use 1 or 0.::
import CHIP_IO.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setup("CSID0", GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.output("CSID0", GPIO.HIGH)
**GPIO Input**
Inputs work similarly to outputs.::
import CHIP_IO.GPIO as GPIO
GPIO.setup("CSID0", GPIO.IN)
Polling inputs::
if GPIO.input("CSID0"):
print("HIGH")
else:
print("LOW")
The edge detection code below only works for the AP-EINT1, AP-EINT3, and XPO Pins on the CHIP.
Waiting for an edge (GPIO.RISING, GPIO.FALLING, or GPIO.BOTH::
GPIO.wait_for_edge(channel, GPIO.RISING)
Detecting events::
GPIO.setup("XIO-P0", GPIO.IN)
GPIO.add_event_detect("XIO-P0", GPIO.FALLING)
#your amazing code here
#detect wherever:
if GPIO.event_detected("XIO-P0"):
print "event detected!"
CHIP_IO can also handle adding callback functions on any pin that supports edge detection.::
def mycallback(channel):
print("we hit the edge we want")
GPIO.setup("GPIO3", GPIO.IN)
# Add Callback: Falling Edge
GPIO.add_event_callback("GPIO3", GPIO.FALLING, mycallback)
# Add Callback: Rising Edge
GPIO.add_event_callback("GPIO3", GPIO.RISING, mycallback)
# Add Callback: Both Edges
GPIO.add_event_callback("GPIO3", GPIO.BOTH, mycallback)
# Remove callback
GPIO.remove_event_detect("GPIO3")
**GPIO Cleanup**
To clean up the GPIO when done, do the following::
# Clean up every exported GPIO Pin
GPIO.cleanup()
# Clean up a single pin (keeping everything else intact)
GPIO.cleanup("XIO-P0")
**PWM**::
Hardware PWM requires a DTB Overlay loaded on the CHIP to allow the kernel to know there is a PWM device available to use.
::
import CHIP_IO.PWM as PWM
# Enable/Disable Debug
PWM.toggle_debug()
#PWM.start(channel, duty, freq=2000, polarity=0)
#duty values are valid 0 (off) to 100 (on)
PWM.start("PWM0", 50)
PWM.set_duty_cycle("PWM0", 25.5)
PWM.set_frequency("PWM0", 10)
# To stop PWM
PWM.stop("PWM0")
PWM.cleanup()
#For specific polarity: this example sets polarity to 1 on start:
PWM.start("PWM0", 50, 2000, 1)
**SOFTPWM**::
import CHIP_IO.SOFTPWM as SPWM
# Enable/Disable Debug
SPWM.toggle_debug()
#SPWM.start(channel, duty, freq=2000, polarity=0)
#duty values are valid 0 (off) to 100 (on)
#you can choose any pin
SPWM.start("XIO-P7", 50)
SPWM.set_duty_cycle("XIO-P7", 25.5)
SPWM.set_frequency("XIO-P7", 10)
# To Stop SPWM
SPWM.stop("XIO-P7")
# Cleanup can have no argument to clean up all SoftPWM outputs
SPWM.cleanup()
# Or you can specify a single SoftPWM output to cleanup (keeping the rest intact)
SPWM.cleanup("XIO-P7")
#For specific polarity: this example sets polarity to 1 on start:
SPWM.start("XIO-P7", 50, 2000, 1)
Use SOFTPWM at low speeds (hundreds of Hz) for the best results. Do not use for anything that needs high precision or reliability.
If using SOFTPWM and PWM at the same time, import CHIP_IO.SOFTPWM as SPWM or something different than PWM as to not confuse the library.
**LRADC**::
The LRADC was enabled in the 4.4.13-ntc-mlc. This is a 6 bit ADC that is 2 Volt tolerant.
Sample code below details how to talk to the LRADC.::
import CHIP_IO.LRADC as ADC
# Enable/Disable Debug
ADC.toggle_debug()
# Check to see if the LRADC Device exists
# Returns True/False
ADC.get_device_exists()
# Setup the LRADC
# Specify a sampling rate if needed
ADC.setup(rate)
# Get the Scale Factor
factor = ADC.get_scale_factor()
# Get the allowable Sampling Rates
sampleratestuple = ADC.get_allowable_sample_rates()
# Set the sampling rate
ADC.set_sample_rate(rate)
# Get the current sampling rate
currentrate = ADC.get_sample_rate()
# Get the Raw Channel 0 or 1 data
raw = ADC.get_chan0_raw()
raw = ADC.get_chan1_raw()
# Get the factored ADC Channel data
fulldata = ADC.get_chan0()
fulldata = ADC.get_chan1()
**SPI**::
SPI requires a DTB Overlay to access. CHIP_IO does not contain any SPI specific code as the Python spidev module works when it can see the SPI bus.
**Overlay Manager**::
The Overlay Manager enables you to quickly load simple Device Tree Overlays. The options for loading are:
PWM0, SPI2, I2C1, CUST
Only one of each type of overlay can be loaded at a time, but all three options can be loaded simultaneously. So you can have SPI2 and I2C1 without PWM0, but you cannot have SPI2 loaded twice.
::
import CHIP_IO.OverlayManager as OM
# The toggle_debug() function turns on/off debug printing
#OM.toggle_debug()
# To load an overlay, feed in the name to load()
OM.load("PWM0")
# To verify the overlay was properly loaded, the get_ functions return booleans
OM.get_pwm_loaded()
OM.get_spi_loaded()
# To unload an overlay, feed in the name to unload()
OM.unload("PWM0")
To use a custom overlay, you must build and compile it properly per the DIP Docs: http://docs.getchip.com/dip.html#development-by-example
There is no verification that the Custom Overlay is setup properly, it's fire and forget
::
import CHIP_IO.OverlayManager as OM
# The full path to the dtbo file needs to be specified
OM.load("CUST","/home/chip/projects/myfunproject/overlays/mycustomoverlay.dtbo")
# You can check for loading like above, but it's really just there for sameness
OM.get_custom_loaded()
# To unload, just call unload()
OM.unload("CUST")
**OverlayManager requires a 4.4 kernel with the CONFIG_OF_CONFIGFS option enabled in the kernel config.**
**Utilties**::
CHIP_IO now supports the ability to enable and disable the 1.8V port on U13. This voltage rail isn't enabled during boot.
To use the utilities, here is sample code::
import CHIP_IO.Utilities as UT
# Enable/Disable Debug
UT.toggle_debug()
# Enable 1.8V Output
UT.enable_1v8_pin()
# Set 2.0V Output
UT.set_1v8_pin_voltage(2.0)
# Set 2.6V Output
UT.set_1v8_pin_voltage(2.6)
# Set 3.3V Output
UT.set_1v8_pin_voltage(3.3)
# Disable 1.8V Output
UT.disable_1v8_pin()
# Get currently-configured voltage (returns False if the pin is not enabled as output)
UT.get_1v8_pin_voltage()
# Unexport Everything
UT.unexport_all()
**Running tests**
Install py.test to run the tests. You'll also need the python compiler package for py.test.::
# Python 2.7
sudo apt-get install python-pytest
# Python 3
sudo apt-get install python3-pytest
To run the tests, do the following.::
# If only one version of Python is installed
sudo py.test
# If more than one version of Python
cd test
sudo python2 -m pytest
sudo python3 -m pytest
