busio – Hardware accelerated external bus access¶
The busio module contains classes to support a variety of serial
protocols.
When the microcontroller does not support the behavior in a hardware
accelerated fashion it may internally use a bitbang routine. However, if
hardware support is available on a subset of pins but not those provided,
then a RuntimeError will be raised. Use the bitbangio module to explicitly
bitbang a serial protocol on any general purpose pins.
All classes change hardware state and should be deinitialized when they
are no longer needed if the program continues after use. To do so, either
call deinit() or use a context manager. See
Lifetime and ContextManagers for more info.
For example:
import busio
from board import *
i2c = busio.I2C(SCL, SDA)
print(i2c.scan())
i2c.deinit()
This example will initialize the the device, run
scan() and then deinit() the
hardware. The last step is optional because CircuitPython automatically
resets hardware after a program finishes.

- class busio.I2C(scl: microcontroller.Pin, sda: microcontroller.Pin, *, frequency: int = 100000, timeout: int = 255)¶
Two wire serial protocol
I2C is a two-wire protocol for communicating between devices. At the physical level it consists of 2 wires: SCL and SDA, the clock and data lines respectively.

- class busio.SPI(clock: microcontroller.Pin, MOSI: microcontroller.Pin | None = None, MISO: microcontroller.Pin | None = None)¶
A 3-4 wire serial protocol
SPI is a serial protocol that has exclusive pins for data in and out of the main device. It is typically faster than
I2Cbecause a separate pin is used to select a device rather than a transmitted address. This class only manages three of the four SPI lines:clock,MOSI,MISO. Its up to the client to manage the appropriate select line, often abbreviatedCSorSS. (This is common because multiple secondaries can share theclock,MOSIandMISOlines and therefore the hardware.)Construct an SPI object on the given pins.
Note
The SPI peripherals allocated in order of desirability, if possible, such as highest speed and not shared use first. For instance, on the nRF52840, there is a single 32MHz SPI peripheral, and multiple 8MHz peripherals, some of which may also be used for I2C. The 32MHz SPI peripheral is returned first, then the exclusive 8MHz SPI peripheral, and finally the shared 8MHz peripherals.

- Paramètres:
- frequency :int¶

- __exit__() None¶
Automatically deinitializes the hardware when exiting a context. See Lifetime and ContextManagers for more info.
- configure(*, baudrate: int = 100000, polarity: int = 0, phase: int = 0, bits: int = 8) None¶
Configures the SPI bus. The SPI object must be locked.
- Paramètres:
baudrate (int) – the desired clock rate in Hertz. The actual clock rate may be higher or lower due to the granularity of available clock settings. Check the
frequencyattribute for the actual clock rate.polarity (int) – the base state of the clock line (0 or 1)
phase (int) – the edge of the clock that data is captured. First (0) or second (1). Rising or falling depends on clock polarity.
bits (int) – the number of bits per word
Note
On the SAMD21, it is possible to set the baudrate to 24 MHz, but that speed is not guaranteed to work. 12 MHz is the next available lower speed, and is within spec for the SAMD21.
Note
On the nRF52840, these baudrates are available: 125kHz, 250kHz, 1MHz, 2MHz, 4MHz, and 8MHz. If you pick a a baudrate other than one of these, the nearest lower baudrate will be chosen, with a minimum of 125kHz. Two SPI objects may be created, except on the Circuit Playground Bluefruit, which allows only one (to allow for an additional I2C object).
