cp2130

PyPI version Build Status

This module provides a Python SDK for the Silicon Labs CP2130 USB to SPI Bridge integrated circuit. It exposes a Pythonic API for accessing the one-time programmable ROM, device state, GPIOs, and SPI slave devices.

Installation

pip install cp2130

The package is published to PyPI for Python 2.7 and 3.3+. pip installs all dependencies.

Dependencies

The PyUSB or python-libusb1 libraries is used to access the USB device. If neither PyUSB nor python-libusb1 is available for your platform, a different USB library may be used by implementing the cp2130.usb.USBDevice interface. See cp2130/usb/pyusb.py and cp2130/usb/libusb1.py as an examples.

Quick-Start

The following python script illustrates basic usage of the Pythonic API. See the CP2130 Interface Specification for full details of the capabilities of the chip. All features are exposed by the API, but not all are demonstrated in this README.

import cp2130
from cp2130.data import *

# If the vendor or product ids are not the default, use
# the form cp2130.find(vid=0xXXXX, pid=0xXXXX).
chip = cp2130.find() 

#######################################################
# SPI Reads/Writes
#######################################################
slave = chip.channel0

# Print a summary of the channel state
print slave

# Write 4 bytes of data to the slave
command = b'\x01\x02\x03\0x04'
slave.write(command)

# Read 8 bytes of data
response = slave.read(8)

# Issue a two-part transaction
part1 = b'\x01\x02'
part2 = b'\x03\x04'
slave.write(part1, cs_hold=True) # Keeps CS asserted
slave.write(part2)

# NOTE: cs_hold is not supported by the CP2130 native chip-select 
# capabilities. To use cs_hold, configure the chip select line as
# a GPIO instead of a chip select. This library will then manually
# manage the chip select state. I.e,:
#   chip.pin_config.gpio0.function = OutputMode.PUSH_PULL # or OutputMode.OPEN_DRAIN
# instead of
#   chip.pin_config.gpio0.function = GPIO0Mode.CS0_n

#######################################################
# GPIO Reads/Writes
#######################################################
signal = chip.gpio0

# Print a summary of the GPIO state
print signal

# Get the logic state of the pin
level = signal.value

# Set the logic state of the pin
signal.value = LogicLevel.LOW

#######################################################
# GPIO Configuration
#######################################################
# Set the mode of a GPIO
signal.mode = OutputMode.PUSH_PULL

#######################################################
# Clock Configuration
#######################################################
clock = chip.clock

# Print the clock state
print clock

# Set the clock frequency
# Use clock.divider to set the divider register directly
clock.frequency = 6 * 1000 * 1000 # 6 MHz

#######################################################
# Event Counter
#######################################################
counter = chip.event_counter

# Print a summary of the counter state 
print counter

# Get count
count = counter.count
(count, overflowed) = counter.count_with_overflow

# Set the count
counter.count = 10

# Configure the counter
counter.mode = EventCounterMode.NEGATIVE_PULSE

#######################################################
# OTP ROM Lock Byte
#######################################################
lock = c.lock

# Print a summary of the lock
print lock

# Lock the USB vendor ID
lock.vid = LockState.LOCKED

#######################################################
# OTP ROM USB Configuration
#######################################################
usb = c.usb

# Print a summary of the USB configuration
print usb

# Set the product string
usb.product_string = "ACME Widget"
c.usb = usb
print lock  # The product_string field is now locked

# Set the power mode
usb.power_mode = PowerMode.BUS_AND_REGULATOR_ON
c.usb = usb
print lock  # The power_mode field is now locked

#######################################################
# OTP ROM Pin Configuration
#######################################################
pins = c.pin_config

# Print a summary of the PIN configuration
print pins

# Print a summary of the config for one pin
print pins.gpio1
print pins.vpp

# Print the clock configuration
print pins.clock

# NOTE: The entire pin configuration must be set at one
# time.  The following example modifies several of the pins and
# then commit the entire config to the OTP ROM at once.

# Set a pin function
pins.gpio1.function = OutputMode.PUSH_PULL

# Set a pin suspend logic level
pins.miso.suspend_level = LogicLevel.HIGH
pins.miso.suspend_mode  = OutputMode.OPEN_DRAIN

# Set a pin wakeup config
pins.vpp.wakeup_level = LogicLevel.LOW
pins.vpp.wakeup_mask  = True

# Set the initial clock freqeuency
pins.clock.frequency = 6 * 1000 * 1000 # 6 MHz

# Write the config to the ROM
c.pin_config = pins
print lock # The pin_config field is now locked

Library Structure

This library is organized into four distinct parts, core, data, chip, and usb.

core

This component is the main high-level, Pythonic API and the one most users will use.

It exposes the various features of the CP2130 as objects. Configuration is done via mutable properties. Data is read and written via methods on the objects.

data

This component provides enums for the fields in the CP2130 configuration.

Using explicit enums, rather than the integer encodings used in the hardware, has two advantages. Most importantly, it makes the code self-documenting. Secondly, the CP2130 uses different encodings for some commands. The enums hides those differences.

chip

This component is a low-level API mirroring the native CP2130 commands.

The cp2130.chip object exposes a method for command in the CP2130 interface. These methods return or take register objects defined in the cp2130.register package, which expose the register fields as mutable properties for easy access and modification.

Most users will never need to use this component directly.

usb

This component is an abstraction over the USB interface used to access this CP2130.

Currently PyUSB and python-libusb1 backends are supplied.
