Constructor Detail

MCP4631

public MCP4631(I2CBus i2cBus,
               boolean pinA0,
               boolean pinA1,
               boolean pinA2,
               MicrochipPotentiometerChannel channel,
               int initialValue)
        throws IOException

Builds an instance which is ready to use.

Parameters:

i2cBus - The Pi4J-I2CBus to which the device is connected to

pinA0 - Whether the device's address pin A0 is high (true) or low (false)

pinA1 - Whether the device's address pin A1 (if available) is high (true) or low (false)

pinA2 - Whether the device's address pin A2 (if available) is high (true) or low (false)

channel - Which of the potentiometers provided by the device to control

initialValue - Initial value of wiper

Throws:

IOException - Thrown if communication fails or device returned a malformed result
