P8X32A/Propeller, P2X8C4M64P/Propeller 2 driver object for the ams/OSRAM TMF8828 ToF imager

tmf8828-spin

---

This is a P8X32A/Propeller, P2X8C4M64P/Propeller 2 driver object for the ams/OSRAM TMF8828 ToF imager

IMPORTANT: This software is meant to be used with the spin-standard-library (P8X32A) or p2-spin-standard-library (P2X8C4M64P). Please install the applicable library first before attempting to use this code, otherwise you will be missing several files required to build the project.

NOTE: Until approval is received from ams/OSRAM, the firmware image for the sensor isn't included in the repository.

Salient Features

• I2C connection at up to 1MHz
• Read sensor temperature
• Read sensor serial number

Requirements

P1/SPIN1:

• spin-standard-library

P2/SPIN2:

• p2-spin-standard-library
