Function Documentation

bh1750fvi_init()

int bh1750fvi_init	(	bh1750fvi_t *	dev,
		const bh1750fvi_params_t *	params
	)

Initialize the given BH1750FVI device.

Parameters

[out]	dev	device descriptor of the targeted device
[in]	params	device configuration (i2c bus, address and bus clock)

Returns

0 on success

-1 if unable to speak to the device

bh1750fvi_sample()

uint16_t bh1750fvi_sample

(

const bh1750fvi_t *

dev

)

Read a ambient light value from the given device [in LUX].

The result value is the measured ambient light intensity in LUX and ranges from 0 to 54612. Taking one measurement takes ~120ms, so it takes this amount of time until the function returns.

Parameters

[in]

dev

device descriptor of the targeted device

Returns

ambient light intensity in LUX
