# micropython-hx711

Micropython driver for the HX711 24-Bit Analog-to-Digital Converter

Latest version supports:

- retrieving data from the channel 'A' with gain 128 and 64, 

the channel 'B' with gain 32 in a raw form and a form 

converted from the two's complement.

- sending "power off" sequence to switch device to the power-saving mode.

- sending "power on" sequence with the gain saved before the "power off".

- checking if the device is ready for the data retrieval.

#### Example for the ESP8266:

D_OUT pin is connected to the GPIO 5


PD_SCK pin is connected to the GPIO 4


Using internal HX711 oscillator, so ESP8266's frequency is set to 160000000

 

```

>>> from machine import freq

>>> freq(160000000)

>>> 

>>> from hx711 import HX711

>>> 

>>> driver = HX711(d_out=5, pd_sck=4)

>>> driver

HX711 on channel A, gain=128

>>> driver.read()

74342

>>> 

>>> driver.channel=HX711.CHANNEL_A_64

>>> driver.channel

('A', 64)

>>> driver.read()

36328

>>> 

>>> driver.power_off()

```
