Introduction

Brushless fan controller

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython
• Bus Device
• Register

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-emc2101

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-emc2101

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-emc2101

Usage Example

import time
import board
import busio
from adafruit_emc2101 import EMC2101

i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)

emc = EMC2101(i2c)
print("Setting fan speed to 25%")
emc.manual_fan_speed = 25
time.sleep(2)  # longer sleep to let it spin down from 100%
print("Fan speed", emc.fan_speed)
