| 2 | +
|
| 3 | +This module provides a CircuitPython implementation to interact with the |
| 4 | +VEML6031/VEML6030 ambient light sensor family using direct I2C register |
| 5 | +access. It mirrors the behavior of the Zephyr driver with support for |
| 6 | +single-measurement (active force) mode and data-ready polling. |
| 7 | +
|
| 8 | +Usage: |
| 9 | + logger = Logger() |
| 10 | + i2c = initialize_i2c_bus(logger, board.SCL, board.SDA, 100000) |
| 11 | + sensor = VEML6031x00Manager(logger, i2c) |
| 12 | + lux = sensor.get_lux() |
