# A1301
Arduino library for A1301 and A1302 magnetometer.
## Description
The A1301 and A1302 are continuous-time, ratiometric, linear
Hall-effect sensors. They are optimized to accurately provide
a voltage output that is proportional to an applied magnetic
field. These devices have a quiescent output voltage that is
50% of the supply voltage. Two output sensitivity options are
provided: 2.5 mV/G typical for the A1301, and 1.3 mV/G
typical for the A1302. (from datasheet)

The following 5 classes are supported:
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
| sensor | sensitivity | support |
|:---------|:---------------:|:---------:|
| A1301 | 2.5 mV/Gauss | Y |
| A1302 | 1.3 mV/Gauss | Y |
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
| A1324 | 5.000 mV/Gauss | Y |
| A1325 | 3.125 mV/Gauss | Y |
| A1326 | 2.500 mV/Gauss | Y |

Other, more or less, compatible sensors are welcome.
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
(see future below.)
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
The library is experimental and need more testing.
Feedback, issues and improvements are welcome,
Please open an issue on GitHub.

## Interface
#### Constructor
- **HALL(uint8_t pin)** base class constructor.
pin is the analogPin to read from.
- **A1301(uint8_t pin)** constructor.
- **A1302(uint8_t pin)** constructor.
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
- **A1324(uint8_t pin)** constructor.
- **A1325(uint8_t pin)** constructor.
- **A1326(uint8_t pin)** constructor.
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
#### Configuration
- **void begin(float voltage, uint16_t steps)**
Sets the parameters voltage and number of steps of the internal ADC.
Note this allows to update the voltage runtime.
- **void setMidPoint(float midPoint)** the value of midPoint depends on the internal ADC.
It is the value where there is no (zero) magnetic field.
Note it does not need to be a whole value.
This allows quite precise tuning.
- **float getMidPoint()** returns the current midPoint.
- **void setSensitivity(float sensitivity)** overrule default sensitivity.
Use with care.
- **float getSensitivity()** return current sensitivity.
#### Read
- **float raw(uint8_t times = 1)** raw analog measurement.
- **float read(uint8_t times = 1)** raw measurement converted to Gauss.
Can be positive (North) or negative (South).
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
Returns Gauss.
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
- **float readExt(float raw)** to be used with external ADC.
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
Note: **raw** is an ADC measurement, not a voltage.
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
Can be positive (North) or negative (South).
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
Returns Gauss.
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
#### Analyse
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
- **bool isNorth()** idem.
- **bool isSouth()** idem.
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
- **float lastGauss()** returns last measurement in Gauss.
- **float prevGauss()** returns previous measurement in Gauss.
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
#### Experimental
- **bool isSaturated()** true when ADC (lastRead) seems to max out. Experimental for now.
#### Tesla
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
- **float Tesla(float Gauss)** convenience convertor.
- **float mTesla(float Gauss)** convenience convertor.
- **float uTesla(float Gauss)** convenience convertor.
## Operation
The examples show the basic working of the functions.
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
(to elaborate more examples)
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
## Future
#### Must
- improve documentation
- buy hardware A1301 / A1302 / ...
- test with hardware (again)
#### Should
- plotter example
- unit tests
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
- test **isSaturated()**
- limits might be sensor dependant.
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
#### Could
- **float findZero()** how exactly.
2022-12-02 06:52:49 -05:00
- **float determineNoise()** related
2022-12-02 04:37:37 -05:00
- printable interface
- Possible compatible
- HoneyWell - SS39ET/SS49E/SS59ET
- HoneyWell - SS490 Series
