This repository contains the Python driver to communicate with a Sensirion SVM4X sensor over UART using the SHDLC protocol.
Click here to learn more about the Sensirion SVM4X sensor.
The SVM4x evaluation kit covers evaluation of the SGP40 and SGP41 sensors.
You can connect your sensor over the provided USB cable.
For special setups check out the sensor pinout in the section below.
Sensor pinout
| Pin | Cable Color | Name | Description | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | red | VDD | Supply Voltage | 3.3 or 5V |
| 2 | black | GND | Ground | |
| 3 | green | RX | UART: Transmission pin for communication | |
| 4 | yellow | TX | UART: Receiving pin for communication | |
| 5 | blue | SEL | Interface select | Leave floating or pull to VDD to select UART |
| 6 | purple | NC | Do not connect |
See the documentation page for an API description and a quickstart example.
We develop and test this driver using our company internal tools (version
control, continuous integration, code review etc.) and automatically
synchronize the master branch with GitHub. But this doesn't mean that we
don't respond to issues or don't accept pull requests on GitHub. In fact,
you're very welcome to open issues or create pull requests :-)
