Detailed Description

An abstract class for all Bosch sensor drivers.

This class provides the generic format so that sensors can communicate over different physical hardware devices. All sensor drivers must inherit this class, ensuring that all sensors are tied to a hardware interface when instantiated.

Member Function Documentation

virtual uint8_t bosch_drivers_common::sensor_driver::getDeviceAddress ( ) [pure virtual]

Retrieve the address of the sensor.

Note:
For SPI transactions, the device_address is the chip select. If the device address is NULL_DEVICE, then the hardware interface should read from the bus without changing any chip select lines.
For GPIO transactions, the device_address is the pin or port.
