CircuitPython driver for WM8960 Stereo CODEC
Dependencies
=============
This driver depends on:
* `Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>`_
* `Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>`_
Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading `the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://circuitpython.org/libraries>`_ or individual libraries can be installed using `circup <https://github.com/adafruit/circup>`_.
This library is designed to help facilite the I2C connection with a WM8960 audio codec to configure it to be used for DAC, ADC, headphone and speaker functionality.
This library has been tested using an RP2040 on CircuitPython 9.1.1 and the `SparkFun Audio Codec PBreakout - WM8960 <https://www.sparkfun.com/products/21250>`_.
Installing from PyPI
=====================
.. note:: This library is not available on PyPI yet. Install documentation is included as a standard element. Stay tuned for PyPI availability!
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally `from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-wm8960/>`_.
To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-wm8960
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-wm8960
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-wm8960
Installing to a Connected CircuitPython Device with Circup
==========================================================
Make sure that you have ``circup`` installed in your Python environment.
Install it with the following command if necessary:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install circup
With ``circup`` installed and your CircuitPython device connected use the
following command to install:
.. code-block:: shell
circup install adafruit_wm8960
Or the following command to update an existing version:
.. code-block:: shell
circup update
Usage Example
=============
.. code-block:: python
# Monitor Stereo Input: INPUT3 => Output Mixer => Headphones
import board
from adafruit_wm8960 import Input, WM8960
codec = WM8960(board.I2C())
codec.input = Input.LINE3
codec.gain = 0.5
codec.monitor = 1.0
codec.headphone = 0.5
Documentation
=============
API documentation for this library can be found on `Read the Docs <https://docs.circuitpython.org/projects/wm8960/en/latest/>`_.
