1 Introduction

Photoresistor
  • The Matrix-Photoresistor is a photoresistor module. It has a 3 pin 2.54mm spacing pin-header of which V is supply voltage, G is ground and s is output analog signal. The output signal decreases with increasing incident light intensity. Users can convert its output analog signal to a digital signal via ADC conversion.
  • Output Voltage: 0 ~ Vcc

2 Features

  • GPIO 3.3/5V
  • Small
  • 2.54mm spacing pin-header
  • PCB Dimension(mm): 8 x 24

3 Basic Device Operation

  • The module has a photoresistor. The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increasing incident light intensity; in other words, it exhibits photoconductivity.If incident light on a photoresistor exceeds a certain frequency, photons absorbed by the semiconductor give bound electrons enough energy to jump into the conduction band. The resulting free electrons (and their hole partners) conduct electricity, thereby lowering resistance.

4 下载Matrix源码

Matrix配件相关的代码是完全开源的,统一由一个仓库进行管理:https://github.com/friendlyarm/matrix.git
该仓库里不同的分支代表着Matrix配件所支持的不同开发板。

  • nanopi分支用于支持NanoPi;
  • nanopi2分支用于支持NanoPi 2;
  • tiny4412分支用于支持Tiny4412;
  • raspberrypi分支用于支持RaspberryPi;

在主机PC上安装git,以Ubuntu14.04为例

$ sudo apt-get install git

克隆Matrix配件代码仓库

$ git clone https://github.com/friendlyarm/matrix.git

克隆完成后会得到一个名为matrix的目录,里面存放着所有Matrix配件的代码。

5 与NanoPi 2连接使用

5.1 硬件连接

参考下图连接模块Matrix-Photoresistor和NanoPi 2:
Matrix-Photoresistor_nanopi_2

连接说明:

Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter NanoPi 2
SDA Pin3
SCL Pin5
5V Pin4
GND Pin6
Matrix-Photoresistor
GND NanoPi 2 Pin9
5V NanoPi 2 Pin2
S Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter A0

光敏电阻输出的是模拟信号,需要使用ADC转换模块Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter将模拟信号转换为数字信号。
先把模块Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter接在NanoPi 2上,然后将模块Matrix-Photoresistor的S引脚接在ADC转换模块的A0引脚。
关于模块Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter可参考wiki:Matrix-Analog_to_Digital_Converter

5.2 编译测试程序

进入Matrix代码仓库,切换到nanopi2分支

$ cd matrix
$ git checkout nanopi2

编译Matrix配件代码

$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- clean
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-
$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux- install

注意:请确保你的主机PC当前使用的交叉编译器为NanoPi 2配套的arm-linux-gcc-4.9.3。
编译成功后库文件位于install/lib目录下,而测试程序则位于install/usr/bin目录下,模块Matrix-Photoresistor对应的测试程序为matrix-adc。
硬件驱动模块位于modules目录下,对应的驱动源码都包含在在NanoPi 2的Linux内核仓库里:https://github.com/friendlyarm/linux-3.4.y.git

5.3 运行测试程序

将带有Debian系统的SD卡插入一台运行Linux的电脑,可以挂载SD卡上的boot和rootfs分区。
假设rootfs分区的挂载路径为/media/rootfs,执行以下命令将Matrix的硬件驱动、库文件和测试程序拷贝到NanoPi 2的文件系统上。

$ cp modules /media/rootfs/ -r
$ cp install/lib/* /media/rootfs/lib/ -d
$ cp install/usr/bin/* /media/rootfs/usr/bin/

将SD卡重新插入NanoPi 2,上电启动,在Debian的shell终端中执行以下命令加载硬件驱动。

$ cd /modules
$ insmod pcf8591.ko

运行模块Matrix-Photoresistor的测试程序。

$ matrix-adc

运行效果如下:
matrix-adc_result

5.4 代码展示

int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
    int i = 0;
    int value = 0;
    int channel = 0;
 
    if (argc == 2) {
        channel = atoi(argv[1]);
    }
 
    for (i=0; i<ADC_READ_TIMES; i++) {
        if (pcf8591Read(channel, &value) != -1) {
            printf("channel%d value=%d\n", channel, value);
        } else {
            printf("Fail to get channel%d value\n", channel);        
        }
        usleep(10000);
    }
    return 0;
}
