NAME
   Device::SMBus - Perl interface for smbus using libi2c-dev library.

VERSION
   version 1.03

SYNOPSIS
      use Device::SMBus;
      $dev = Device::SMBus->new(
        I2CBusDevicePath => '/dev/i2c-1',
        I2CDeviceAddress => 0x1e,
      );
      print $dev->readByteData(0x20);

DESCRIPTION
   This is a perl interface to smbus interface using libi2c-dev library.

   Prerequisites:

   *   sudo apt-get install libi2c-dev i2c-tools

   Enabling the I2C on a Raspberry Pi:

   You will need to comment out the driver from the blacklist. currently
   the I2C driver isn't being loaded.

        sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/raspi-blacklist.conf

   Replace this line

        blacklist i2c-bcm2708

   with this

        #blacklist i2c-bcm2708

   You now need to edit the modules conf file.

        sudo vim /etc/modules

   Add these two lines;

        i2c-dev
        i2c-bcm2708

   Now run this command(replace 1 with 0 for older model Pi)

        sudo i2cdetect -y 1

   you should now see the addresses of the i2c devices connected to your
   i2c bus

ATTRIBUTES
 I2CBusDevicePath
   Device path of the I2C Device.

    * On Raspberry Pi Model A this would usually be /dev/i2c-0 if you are using the default pins.
    * On Raspberry Pi Model B this would usually be /dev/i2c-1 if you are using the default pins.

 I2CDeviceAddress
   This is the Address of the device on the I2C bus, this is usually
   available in the device Datasheet.

    * for /dev/i2c-0 look at output of `sudo i2cdetect -y 0'
    * for /dev/i2c-1 look at output of `sudo i2cdetect -y 1'

METHODS
 fileError
   returns IO::Handle->error() for the device handle since the last
   clearerr

 writeQuick
   $self->writeQuick($value)

 readByte
   $self->readByte()

 writeByte
   $self->writeByte()

 readByteData
   $self->readByteData($register_address)

 writeByteData
   $self->writeByteData($register_address,$value)

 readNBytes
   $self->readNBytes($lowest_byte_address, $number_of_bytes);

   Read together N bytes of Data in linear register order. i.e. to read
   from 0x28,0x29,0x2a

   $self->readNBytes(0x28,3);

 readWordData
   $self->readWordData($register_address)

 writeWordData
   $self->writeWordData($register_address,$value)

 processCall
   $self->processCall($register_address,$value)

 DEMOLISH
   Destructor

CONSTANTS
 I2C_SLAVE
USAGE
   *   This module provides a simplified object oriented interface to the
       libi2c-dev library for accessing electronic peripherals connected on
       the I2C bus. It uses Moose.

see ALSO
   *   Moose

   *   IO::File

   *   Fcntl
