readPressure

Read one absolute pressure data sample from LPS22HB sensor

Since R2021a

Description

example

[pressureReading,timestamp] = readPressure(sensor) returns one sample of the absolute pressure data from the LPS22HB sensor. The absolute pressure sample is returned as a scalar in Pascal. The function also returns the timestamp at which MATLAB® receives the absolute pressure data from the LPS22HB sensor. The timestamp output is optional.

Read the absolute pressure data from the LPS22HB sensor.

Create a connection from MATLAB to the Raspberry Pi® hardware board.

mypi = raspi;
mypi = 

  Raspi with Properties:

           DeviceAddress: 'raspberrypi-hysdu8X38o'
                    Port: 18734
               BoardName: 'Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+'
           AvailableLEDs: {'led0'}
    AvailableDigitalPins: [4,5,6,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27]
    AvailableSPIChannels: {‘CE0’,’CE1’}
       AvailableI2CBuses: {'i2c-1'}
             I2CBusSpeed: 100000
        AvailabelWebCams: mmal service 16.1 (platform:bcm2835-v4l2)

Create an lps22hb sensor object on the I2C bus 'i2c-1' on address '0x5D'.

sensor = lps22hb(mypi,'Bus','i2c-1','I2CAddress','0x5D');
sensor = 

  lps22hb with properties:

                         I2CAddress: 93 ("0x5D")
                                Bus: i2c-1

Return one sample of absolute pressure data read from the LPS22HB sensor.

[pressureReading,timestamp] = readPressure(sensor);
pressureReading =

  data

    9.0993e+04

timestamp = 

  datetime

   22-Dec-2020 17:28:33.315

Since the timestamp output is optional, you can obtain only the absolute pressure data from the LPS22HB sensor.

[pressureReading] = readPressure(sensor);
pressureReading =

  data

    9.0993e+04

Input Arguments

collapse all

LPS22HB sensor object connection to the Raspberry Pi hardware board, specified as a lps22hb object.

Example: sensor = lps22hb(mypi) creates a connection to the LPS22HB sensor on the Raspberry Pi object mypi.

Output Arguments

Read the absolute pressure data from the LPS22HB sensor.

Read the date and time at which MATLAB receives the absolute pressure sample value from the LPS22HB sensor, specified as a datetime.
