Platform agnostic driver for TSL256x series of light intensity sensors built using the embedded-hal

What works

  • Getting raw sensor readings for both visible+IR spectrum and IR-only spectrum
  • Using one of the three built in slave addresses, or any custom address
  • Powering the chip on/off to conserve energy
  • Setting sensor gain and integration time

TODO

  • Add method to perform lux calculation (requires nostd implementation of exponentiation for f32)
  • Add method to setup interrupts
  • Support the TSL2560 (SPI version)

Example

    extern crate tsl256x;
    use tsl256x::{Tsl2561, SlaveAddr};
    
    let sensor = Tsl2561::new(&mut i2c, SlaveAddr::default().addr()).unwrap();
    sensor.power_on(&mut i2c); 
    
    // Note sensor readings are zero until one integration period (default 400ms) after power on
    iprintln!(&mut cp.ITM.stim[0], "IR+Visible: {}, IR Only: {}",
                        sensor.visible_and_ir_raw(&mut i2c).unwrap(),
                        sensor.ir_raw(&mut i2c).unwrap());
