This is an Arduino inspired library for interfacing between Vocore2 and the module max6675 for thermocouples.

Made by Bryan Barbosa from Federal University of Juiz de Fora and CREA - University of California, Berkeley.

The library can be used simply by importing the Python file to your project.

import max6675

Or, for an easier usage and more Arduino-like, you can import it like this:

from max6675 import *

The usage of the library is simple. Follow the steps:

1. Define variables for the pins where the 6675 module is connected.
2. Create an instance of the max6675 passing the three variables as parameteres.
3. Get the temperature readings by calling the functions ".read_[...]", that can return values in Celsius, Fahrenheit and Kelvin.

Here's a code example:

from max6675 import *
from vocoreGPIO import *

#1. Defining pins
sclk = 39
cs = 40
miso = 41

#2. Creating an instance of the max6675 class
t = max6675(sclk, cs, miso)

while(1):
    c = t.read_celsius() #Getting reading in Celsius
    f = t.read_fahrenheit() #Getting reading in Fahrenheit
    k = t.read_kelvin() #Getting reading in Kelvin

    print("C:", c, "   F:", f, "   K:", k)
    delay(15000)
