A special circuit pushes the current through the emitting diode up to 0.5A for the duration of a pulse of approximately 100µs.
Usage Zynq7000
To use the module with the Zynq7000 together with https://flink-project.ch/, you need a Reflective Photoelectric Sensor subdevice within flink. Connect it in the following way:
| Microzed Board | Module |
|---|---|
| L14 | Trig |
| N16 | A0 |
| L15 | A1 |
| ADC7476 | Out |
There are two drivers available. One for Python when using a Linux operating system and one for Java in combination with deep.
Python Example
LCDExample.py
import driver
import time
# init LCD
disp = driver.HD44780U()
disp.init(2)
# write to display
a = 87103
disp.writeString(str(a))
disp.setCursor(1,5)
disp.writeChar('A')
disp.writeChar('x')
time.sleep(3)
# clear display
disp.clearDisplay()
# turn on display and turn off blinking and cursor
disp.onOff(True, False, False)
Java Example

}
public static void dispOn() {
disp.onOff(true, true, true);
}
public static void writeT() {
disp.writeChar('T');
}
public static void writeInt() {
disp.writeInt(8635, 6);
}
public static void writeLn() {
disp.writeLn();
}
public static void clearDisplay() {
disp.clearDisplay();
}
public static void setCursor() {
disp.setCursor(1, 4);
}
