How to process i2c information
Posted: Fri Jun 18, 2021 12:50 pm
hello there,
I need some help with I2C, it is the first time when I need to use a device without a library.
The device is a fuel gauge. MAX17055. I am using micropython ofc.
i2c.readfrom(104, 0x06) this command should give me the battery level.
what I get is this (each line is a reading, takean after eachother):
b'\x13^o\x01\x16B'
b'\xc1@\x1a\x00\xb1\x11'
b'\n\x03\x85e\x8d('
b'\xdc\x12:\x00#&'
My guestion is how should I understood this data?
Looks off to me. Why do I get completly different data after each reading?
Thanks in advance!
