CircuitPython helper library for using the Adafruit MLX90395 tri-Axis magnetometer breakout


Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:

* `Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
* `Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>`_
* `Register <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Register>`_

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>`_.

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-mlx90395/>`_. To install for current user:

.. code-block:: shell

    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90395

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

.. code-block:: shell

    sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90395

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

.. code-block:: shell

    mkdir project-name && cd project-name
    python3 -m venv .venv
    source .venv/bin/activate
    pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mlx90395

Usage Example
=============

.. code-block:: python3

    from time import sleep
    import board
    import busio
    from adafruit_mlx90395 import MLX90395, OSR

    i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)
    sensor = MLX90395(i2c)
    while True:
        mag_x, mag_y, mag_z = sensor.magnetic

        print("X1:{0:10.2f}, Y:{1:10.2f}, Z:{2:10.2f} uT".format(mag_x, mag_y, mag_z))
        print("")

        sleep(0.5)
