OSP Middleware aomw

Library "OSP Middleware aomw", usually abbreviated to "aomw", is one of the aolibs; short for Arduino OSP libraries from ams-OSRAM. This suite implements support for chips that use the Open System Protocol, like the AS1163 ("SAID") or the OSIRE E3731i ("RGBi"). The landing page for the aolibs is on GitHub.

Introduction

Library aomw is a library with middleware for OSP applications. It implements features like building a topology map of an OSP chain (which type of chip at which OSP address), has several I2C device drivers (for I2C devices used in the evaluation kit) and scripting (simple light animations).

These features are typically used in the aoapps library.

This library also contains a module for color conversions: aomw_color. The module is needed to tweak the PWM settings of individual RGB triplets in order for a series of them to all show the exact same color; and to keep that color when temperature changes. Module aomw_color comes with examples but it is not used in the various demos because it requires management of color calibration data, beyond the scope of the evaluation kit.

Examples

This library comes with the following examples. You can find them in the Arduino IDE via File > Examples > OSP Middleware aomw > ...:

• aomw_min (source)
  This demo scans the OSP chain using the topo builder from the middleware to form a topology map of all nodes of the OSP chain. Next, it toggles the first triplet between magenta and yellow. Note that topo abstracts away that a SAID has three RGB triplets and an RGBI one, and that they need different telegrams for the same results.

• aomw_topodump (source)
  This demo scans the OSP chain using the topo builder from the middleware to form a topology map of all nodes of the OSP chain. Next, it prints out the chain configuration: nodes, triplets, i2cbridges. It does feature some time measurement code. See the comment at the end of the sketch for an analysis of the measurements.

• aomw_topodemo (source)
  This demo first creates a topology map of all nodes of the OSP chain. Next it animates a running led animation, constantly updating the triplets. The topo map creation and running led animation is driven from a state machine. This would allow running commands from serial or scanning for presses of UI buttons.

• aomw_toposkip (source)
  This demos the SKIPCHN feature: the topo builder skips channel x of a SAID if the SAID has the SKIPCHNx bit set in OTP. The demo begins with no channels skipped, but each step adds one channel to skip.

• aomw_flag (source)
  This demo builds a topology map of all nodes of the OSP chain. Next, it uses this topo map to paint country flags spread out over an entire OSP chain.

• aomw_sseg (source)
  This demo initializes an OSP chain, powers the I2C bridge in a SAID and checks whether there is a quad 7-segment display - as on the SAIDsense board. If there is, the demo configures the display and starts showing increasing numbers.

• aomw_as6212 (source)
  This demo initializes an OSP chain, powers the I2C bridge in a SAID and checks whether there is an AS6212 temperature sensor - as on the SAIDsense board. If there is, the demo configures the sensor and starts reading and printing temperatures at a steady pace.

• aomw_sfh5721 (source)
  This demo initializes an OSP chain, powers the I2C bridge in a SAID and checks whether there is a SFH5721 light sensor - as on the SAIDsense board. If there is, the demo configures the sensor and starts reading and printing light levels at a steady pace.

• aomw_as5600 (source)
  This demo initializes an OSP chain, powers the I2C bridge in a SAID and checks whether there is a AS5600 rotary sensor - as on the SAIDsense board. If there is, the demo configures the sensor and starts reading and printing angles at a steady pace.

• aomw_iox4b4l (source)
  This demo initializes an OSP chain, powers the I2C bridge in a SAID and checks whether there is a "selector". A selector is an I/O-expander (IOX), an I2C device that exposes a set of GPIO pins, in the case of a selector connected to 4 buttons and 4 indicator LEDs. If the selector is found (there is on on the SAIDbasic board and one on the SAIDsense board), the demo plays a light show on the connected indicator LEDs, which can be interrupted by pressing a button connected to the IOX.

• aomw_eeprom (source)
  This demo initializes an OSP chain, powers the I2C bridge in a SAID and checks whether there is an EEPROM. If so, reads and prints the entire EEPROM contents, then modifies one row and then restores that. It finalizes by doing a compare of the current EEPROM content with the values read at the start.

• aomw_tscript (source)
  This demo uses topo to initialize the OSP chain, then installs one of the animation scripts. The main program continuously loops over all script instructions to draw the "frames".

• aomw_colormath (source)
  This demo shows how to compute the duty cycles for the R, G, and B LEDs of a calibrated triplet, in order to reach a target color point. This demo also includes a (post-mixing) temperature correction. The demo is "mathematical" in that it shows how the computations are done. This demo does not control triplets, or use actual sensor data (temperature), it spoofs inputs and only prints outputs to Serial. See aomw_colordemo for a more realistic example.

• aomw_colordemo (source)
  This demo shows how to get uniform colors over multiple RGB triplets with varying temperatures. It controls a SAID chain with triplets, using the temperature sensor in the SAIDs as an approximation of the triplets' temperatures. Note however, the supplied calibration data, although real, is very unlikely to match the users' hardware.

Module architecture

This library contains several modules (a source and header file), see figure below. The green boxes are header files (.h), the blue boxes are source files (.cpp). Arrows indicate #include. The modules in the red pane have a common characteristic: they are drivers for I2C devices via a SAID.

• aomw_topo (aomw_topo.cpp and aomw_topo.h) builds and then provides the so-called "topology map", a data structure describing the attached OSP chain: how many OSP nodes, how many RGB triplets, how many I2C bridges, plus to which OSP node each triplet or I2C bridge connects. Building the map includes reset, init and a scan (identity, otp) of all nodes, plus configuring all nodes (drive current, power state, errors).

  Another high level feature of the topo module is to abstract away how to drive triplets (is a triplet on a channel, the channel's drive current settings, the available PWM bits). The topo module defines its own dynamic range: "topo brightness range", ranging from 0 to 0x7FFF and is able to map that to any triplet (RGBI's and RGBs connected to SAID). The aomw_topo_settriplet abstractions makes it the API for other modules (aomw_tscript, aomw_flag, most apps in library aoapps).

  The topo module also has a command handler that can be registered with the command interpreter. This makes the topology map and the high level aomw_topo_settriplet() available through the serial interface.

• aomw_tscript (aomw_tscript.cpp and aomw_tscript.h) implements an interpreter that executes instructions describing an animation on an RGB strip. Typically those scripts are stored in an EEPROM, but the scripts can also come from other sources, there is no dependency from aomw_tscript to aomw_eeprom. This module uses aomw_topo to render the script so any OSP chain supported by topo could be used as a target.

  The script is an balance between functionality and low memory footprint. Instructions are 16 bits (so a 256 byte EEPROM can store 128 instructions). The RGB values in the instruction are only 3 bit each (so 8 shades). A more detailed explanation is in aomw_tscript.cpp.

  This module also contains some animation scripts. The application eepromflasher allows writing scripts to EEPROMs. The app aoapps_aniscript reads those EEPROMs and play the animation.

• aomw_flag (aomw_flag.cpp and aomw_flag.h) is a module that can "paint" one of its supported country flags (Dutch, European union) to the OSP chain. The flags are available by name and by index. This module uses aomw_topo to render the flags on RGB modules.

  The app aoapps_swflag uses this module to paint a flag.

• aomw_color (aomw_color.cpp and aomw_color.h) is a module that contains color data types and color conversion routines with the aim to realize uniform colors in an OSP chain irrespective of variations in manufacturing (exact color point of an LED) and irrespective of local temperature (differences). This module comes with two examples (math and demo); but it is not used in any real demo (because the calibration data does not match "your" hardware).

• aomw_iox4b4l (aomw_iox4b4l.cpp and aomw_iox4b4l.h) is a driver for a "selector" as is found on the SAIDbasic and SAIDsense board. A selector is an I2C based I/O-expander with 4 of its GPIOs attached to an indicator LED, and 4 of its GPIOs attached to a button.

  The app aoapps_swflag uses the buttons of the selector to select one in four country flags (and it uses the indicator LEDs to indicate the currently selected flag).

  The app aoapps_sensors uses the buttons of the selector to select which sensor is active (and it uses the indicator LEDs to indicate the currently selected sensor).

• aomw_eeprom (aomw_eeprom.cpp and aomw_eeprom.h) is a driver for I2C based EEPROMs (AT24C02C with 256 locations of 1 byte). The driver can read bytes from or write bytes to such an EEPROM. It also has a compare feature and a presence check (test if an EEPROM is attached to the I2C bus of a SAID).

• aomw_as5600 (aomw_as5600.cpp and aomw_as5600.h) is a driver for an I2C based magnetic rotary sensor (AS5600). It is a simple driver. Upon startup it configures the sensor for its (factory) default register settings. Furthermore there is a function to read the (raw) angle and a function to read the magnetic force.

• aomw_as6212 (aomw_as6212.cpp and aomw_as6212.h) is a driver for an I2C based temperature sensor (AS6212). It is a simple driver; it does not support the thresholds, nor the CONFIG fields AL, IM, POL, CF[]. In addition to a function to get the temperature the conversion rate can be controlled.

• aomw_sfh5721 (aomw_sfh5721.cpp and aomw_sfh5721.h) is a driver for an I2C based ambient light sensor (SFH 5721). It is a simple driver; it does not support any configuration or channel selection, there is only a function to get the ambient lux level.

• aomw_sseg (aomw_sseg.cpp, aomw_sseg.i and aomw_sseg.h) is a driver for a quad 7-segment display as found on SAIDsense board. It uses four I2C based I/O-expanders (PCA9554) to drive the four 7-segment display modules. It includes a font (aomw_sseg.i) for the entire ASCII set (although some characters are hard to render on a 7-segment display). This font comes from Maarten Pennings' GitHub.

Each module has its own header file, but the library has an overarching header aomw.h, which includes the module headers. It is suggested that users just include the overarching header.

API

The header aomw.h contains the API of this library. It includes the module headers. The headers contain little documentation; for that see the module source files.

aomw

• aomw_init() not really needed, but added for forward compatibility.
• AOMW_VERSION identifies the version of the library.

aomw_topo

The core functions are aomw_topo_build() and aomw_topo_settriplet(tix,rgb).

The API of the topo module can be divided in several parts. First of all there are the functions to build the topology map.

• aomw_topo_build() is the high level function sending multiple telegrams to probe the OSP chain and build the topology map. this includes reset and init.
• aomw_topo_build_start(), aomw_topo_build_step(), and aomw_topo_build_done() achieve the same as aomw_topo_build(), but these only send one telegram per call (see below on execution architecture).

Secondly, there are functions to query the topology map.

• aomw_topo_loop() indicates direction loop or bidir.
• aomw_topo_numnodes() returns the number of OSP node, and aomw_topo_node_id(addr) returns the type of each node. aomw_topo_node_numtriplets(addr) returns the number of triplets associated with a node, and aomw_topo_node_triplet1(addr) the index of the first triplet associated to it.
• More important are the triplet functions: aomw_topo_numtriplets() returns the number of triplets, aomw_topo_triplet_addr(tix) returns the address of the OSP node driving the triplet, aomw_topo_triplet_chan(tix) returns the channel number withing the OSP node driving the triplet, and aomw_topo_triplet_onchan(tix) returns true if the OSP node uses channels.
• Two functions list all I2C bridges: aomw_topo_numi2cbridges() list the total amount, and aomw_topo_i2cbridge_addr(bix) the associated OSP node.
• aomw_topo_i2cfind(daddr7) searches all I2C bridges for an I2C device that acknowledges a read from I2C device address daddr7.

Thirdly, there are functions to print (dump) the topology map.

• aomw_topo_dump_summary() prints a one-line summary to Serial.
• aomw_topo_dump_nodes() prints a table of all OSP nodes to Serial.
• aomw_topo_dump_triplets() prints a table all triplets to Serial.
• aomw_topo_dump_i2cbridges() prints a table of all I2C bridges to Serial.
• aomw_topo_dump_power() prints the max power consumption of the nodes to Serial.

Fourthly, there is the high level API to use the topology map to control (the color/brightness of) triplets.

• AOMW_TOPO_BRIGHTNESS_MAX defines the "topo brightness range" maximum value (0 is the minimum).
• Type aomw_topo_rgb_t is a struct with three fields (r/g/b) each supposed to be in the "topo brightness range".
• aomw_topo_red..aomw_topo_white some stock colors (of type aomw_topo_rgb_t).
• Key function aomw_topo_settriplet(tix,rgb) sets a triplet tix to a color rgb. As an extra feature, rgb is dimmed down using the global dim level (see aomw_topo_dim_set).
• aomw_topo_dim_set(dim) and aomw_topo_dim_get() allow the caller to set a multiplication factor (0..dim/1024) for settriplet.

Fifthly, there is a command handler.

• aomw_topo_cmd_register() registers the topo command with the command interpreter. This makes the topology map and the high level aomw_topo_settriplet() and aomw_topo_dim_set() available through the serial interface.

aomw_tscript

The tiny animation script interpreter has two high level functions.

• aomw_tscript_install(*ints,num) installs a script (i.e. an array of 16 bit instructions) for the interpreter.
• aomw_tscript_playframe() plays one frame from the installed script. Should be called repeatedly with a constant rate to play the whole script with a fixed frame rate. Automatically wraps around.

Lower level functions

• aomw_tscript_gotofirst(), aomw_tscript_gotonext(), and aomw_tscript_atend() form the iterator used by play frame.
• aomw_tscript_get() returns the decoded instruction under the cursor (pointer) of the iterator.
• aomw_tscript_playinst() plays one instruction (the one under the cursor/pointer of the iterator). Note that one frame could be built-up from multiple instructions via the "with-previous" flag.

Finally this module has some stock scripts.

• aomw_tscript_rainbow(), aomw_tscript_rainbow_bytes()
• aomw_tscript_bouncingblock(), aomw_tscript_bouncingblock_bytes()
• aomw_tscript_colormix(), aomw_tscript_colormix_bytes()
• aomw_tscript_heartbeat(), aomw_tscript_heartbeat_bytes()

aomw_flag

The flag module has "painters": functions that paint a pattern on the OSP chain, using the aomw_topo_settriplet().

• aomw_flag_painter_dutch()
• aomw_flag_painter_columbia()
• aomw_flag_painter_japan()
• aomw_flag_painter_mali()
• aomw_flag_painter_italy()
• aomw_flag_painter_europe()
• aomw_flag_painter_usa()
• aomw_flag_painter_china()

Next to that, the painters are also available by index:

• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_DUTCH
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_COLUMBIA
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_JAPAN
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_MALI
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_ITALY
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_EUROPE
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_USA
• AOMW_FLAG_PIX_CHINA

The index can be used for this (lookup) table.

• aomw_flag_count(), aomw_flag_name(pix), and aomw_flag_painter(pix)

aomw_color

The color module has several data types representing colors in different color spaces.

• aomw_color_cxcyiv1_t and aomw_color_cxcyiv3_t CIE x,y coordinates and luminous intensity (Cx,Cy,Iv). This is a color space that matches the human eye, it is used to calibrate LED colors; it is less suited for color computations. The helper functions aomw_color_cxcyiv1_to_str() and aomw_color_cxcyiv3_to_str() convert instances to a string.

• aomw_color_xyz1_t and aomw_color_xyz3_t tristimulus X, Y, Z color space. This color space is used by the color computations in this library. The helper functions aomw_color_xyz1_to_str() and aomw_color_xyz3_to_str() convert instances to a string.

• aomw_color_mix_t and aomw_color_pwm_t represent duty cycles as fractional numbers (float) or as (uint16_t) PWM settings. The helper functions aomw_color_mix_to_str() and aomw_color_pwm_to_str() convert instances to a string.

• aomw_color_poly_t, aomw_color_poly1_t and aomw_color_poly3_t represent polynomials that are used to correct a aomw_color_cxcyiv1/3_t color point when temperature drifts away from the color calibration reference temperature.

Calibration data typically comes for fewer drive currents than the SAID supports. Therefore, this library provides interpolation functions aomw_color_interpolate3() that interpolates between two aomw_color_cxcyiv3_t. There is also the helper aomw_color_interpolate1().

Calibration data typically comes for one single reference temperature. Therefore this library provides temperature correction functions aomw_color_poly_apply3() on aomw_color_cxcyiv3_t. There is also the helper aomw_color_poly_apply1().

Calibration data typically comes in the form of aomw_color_cxcyiv3_t, but color computations use aomw_color_xyz3_t. This library therefore has conversion function aomw_color_cxcyiv3_to_xyz3(). There is also the helper aomw_color_cxcyiv1_to_xyz1().

The color module has two color computation functions.

• aomw_color_computemix() computes the mixing ratio of the red, green and blue led, in order to reach a target color. It needs the calibration data of the triplet for which to compute the mixing ratio.

• aomw_color_mix_to_pwm() computes the PWM settings from the mixing ratio.

See section Color computation for details on the implementation.

aomw_iox4b4l

This module implements a driver for a "selector".

A selector is an I2C based I/O-expander (PCA9554ABS and PCA6408ABSHP) connected to 4 buttons and 4 indicator LEDs, providing a simple user interface to selected one of four. Such a selector is present on the SAIDbasic board (PCA6408ABSHP) and the SAIDsense board (PCA9554ABS).

First, the driver needs to be coupled to an selector:

• aomw_iox4b4l_present(addr,daddr7) checks if the I/O-expander with I2C address daddr7 is on the bus of the OSP node addr (SAID with I2C bridge).
• aomw_iox4b4l_init(addr,daddr7,pincfg) couples the I/O-expander (with address daddr7, attached to the OSP node with address addr) to the driver. This driver is not multi-instance. It can only control one IOX. The pincfg describes which pin is button or LED and whether it is low active or high active.
• There are macros for daddr7 and pincfg for two boards in the eval kit that have a selector: AOMW_IOX4B4L_DADDR7_SAIDSENSE, AOMW_IOX4B4L_PINCFG_SAIDSENSE for SAIDsense and AOMW_IOX4B4L_DADDR7_SAIDBASIC, AOMW_IOX4B4L_PINCFG_SAIDBASIC for SAIDbasic.

To control the indicator LEDs on the selector:

• aomw_iox4b4l_led_on(leds), aomw_iox4b4l_led_off(leds), aomw_iox4b4l_led_tgl, and aomw_iox4b4l_led_set(leds) control the indicator LEDs connected to the I/O-expander.
• AOMW_IOX4B4L_LEDxxx are the various masks used for the leds parameter; they denote one (or zero, or all) indicator LEDs.

To check the buttons on the selector:

• aomw_iox4b4l_but_scan() scans all input lines of the I/O-expander (those were the buttons are attached to) and stores the current four button states, maintaining the previous state too.
• aomw_iox4b4l_but_wentdown(buts), aomw_iox4b4l_but_isdown(buts), aomw_iox4b4l_but_wentup(buts), and aomw4b4l_iox_but_isup(buts) report the last transition or current button state.
• AOMW_IOX4B4L_BUTxxx are the various masks used for the buts parameter; they denote one (or zero, or all) buttons.

aomw_eeprom

This module implements a driver for an EEPROM memory.

The EEPROMS used in the OSP evaluation kit are I2C devices storing 1 byte in 256 locations (AT24C02C). Depending on their position in the system, these I2C EEPROMs have a different I2C address. There is an EEPROM on the OSP32 board, on the SAIDbasic board and there are stand-alone EEPROM sticks (that can be plugged into the OSP32 or SAIDbasic board).

For the boards in the eval kit, the I2C addresses of the used EEPROMs are already defined:

• AOMW_EEPROM_DADDR7_OSP32 address of the EEPROM on OSP32 board.
• AOMW_EEPROM_DADDR7_SAIDBASIC address of the EEPROM on SAIDbasic board.
• AOMW_EEPROM_DADDR7_STICK address of the EEPROM on I2C EEPROM stick.

The access functions have the I2C address as parameter (next to the OSP address and the EEPROM memory address):

• aomw_eeprom_read(...) reads bytes from an I2C EEPROM.
• aomw_eeprom_write(...) writes bytes to an I2C EEPROM.
• aomw_eeprom_compare(...) reads bytes from an I2C EEPROM and compares them with a buffer.
• aomw_eeprom_present(...) checks if an EEPROM is present on an I2C bus.

aomw_as5600

This module implements a driver for an AS5600 magnetic rotary sensor.

The AS5600 is an I2C sensor, present on the SAIDsense board.

First, the driver needs to be coupled to an I2C device:

• aomw_as5600_present(addr) checks if the AS5600 is on the bus of the OSP node addr (SAID with I2C bridge).
• aomw_as5600_init(addr) couples the AS5600, attached to the OSP node with address addr, to the driver. This driver is not multi-instance. It can only control one AS5600.
• The macro AOMW_AS5600_DADDR7_SAIDSENSE maps to the I2C address of the AS5600 on the SAIDsense board.

This is a simple driver, it allows no configuration of the sensor. It only has two "getters":

• aomw_as5600_angle_get() gets the angle measured by the sensor.
• aomw_as5600_force_get() gets the magnetic force measured by the sensor.

aomw_as6212

This module implements a driver for an AS6212 temperature sensor.

The AS6212 is an I2C sensor, present on the SAIDsense board.

First, the driver needs to be coupled to an I2C device:

• aomw_as6212_present(addr) checks if the AS6212 is on the bus of the OSP node addr (SAID with I2C bridge).
• aomw_as6212_init(addr) couples the AS6212, attached to the OSP node with address addr, to the driver. This driver is not multi-instance. It can only control one AS6212.
• The macro AOMW_AS6212_DADDR7_SAIDSENSE maps to the I2C address of the AS6212 on the SAIDsense board.

This is a simple driver, it allows only configuration of the conversion rate and has one "getters":

• aomw_as6212_temp_get() gets the temperature measured by the sensor.
• aomw_as6212_convrate_set(...), aomw_as6212_convrate_get() sets and gets the conversion rate.

aomw_sfh5721

This module implements a driver for an SFH5721 ambient light sensor.

The SFH5721 is an I2C sensor, present on the SAIDsense board.

First, the driver needs to be coupled to an I2C device:

• aomw_sfh5721_present(addr) checks if the SFH5721 is on the bus of the OSP node addr (SAID with I2C bridge).
• aomw_sfh5721_init(addr) couples the SFH5721, attached to the OSP node with address addr, to the driver. This driver is not multi-instance. It can only control one SFH5721.
• The macro AOMW_SFH5721_DADDR7_SAIDSENSE maps to the I2C address of the SFH5721 on the SAIDsense board.

This is a simple driver, it has one "getter":

• aomw_sfh5721_als_get() gets the ambient light measured by the sensor.

aomw_sseg

This module implements a driver for a quad-segment display as present on the SAIDsense board.

First, the driver needs to be coupled to an I2C device:

• aomw_sseg_present(addr) checks if the display is on the bus of the OSP node addr (SAID with I2C bridge).
• aomw_sseg_init(addr) couples the display, attached to the OSP node with address addr, to the driver. This driver is not multi-instance. It can only control one display.
• The macros AOMW_SSEG_X_DADDR7_SAIDSENSE map to the I2C address of I/O-expanders that drive the display on the SAIDsense board.

There are several ways to write to the display:

• aomw_sseg_clr() clears the display, all segments off.
• aomw_sseg_set(...) an array of bytes (with 8 bits for each of the segments) determines what is shown.
• aomw_sseg_print(...) the passed string is printed - using a built-in font.
• aomw_sseg_printf(...) as printf.

Color computation

The module aomw_color provides an a reference implementation of color computations with the aim to achieve uniform colors independent of manufacturing variation and independent of LED temperature at run time. It relies on a data base with color calibration data (color points) and temperature correction data ("polynomials") per RGB triplet.

Key input for the color computation is the target color (which includes brightness) that must be realized with some source triplet. Other inputs are the selected drive current (which may depend on the target color), the triplet temperature and the PWM range configured in the driver.

The diagram below shows the computation steps, all the inputs and the database with calibration data. It is annotated (in fixed width font) with the names of functions and data types from this library that are needed for each step. Some of these are found in module aomw_color, others in the example aomw_colordemo.

This flow computes the PWM settings for the red, green and blue LED of the source triplet so that it emits the target color.

The example aomw_colordemo shows how a calibration database (caldb) could be organized:

• The array caldb_colors[] stores the color points per RGB triplet for two drive currents. This results in storing three floats (Cx,Cy,Iv) for red, three for green and three for blue, times two (for the drive currents). This results in 18 floats per triplet.

• Given a triplet index and a drive current, the caldb interpolates between the two stored drive currents to obtain (Cx,Cy,Iv) for red, green and blue.

• The array caldb_polys[] stores the temperature dependencies (via a second degree polynomial) per RGB triplet. This results in storing two float polynomial coefficients (a,b) per color space component (Cx,Cy,Iv) for red, three for green and three for blue. This results in another 18 floats per triplet. The aomw_colordemo also shows a solution that uses one generic polynomial instead of per triplet.

• The next step is to use the actual triplet temperature, and polynomial to compute the temperature shift of the color points.

• All these computations are in the cxcyiv3 domain, the last abstraction the calibration database in aomw_colordemo makes is to convert to the XYZ color space.

• The database exposes one function void caldb_get(tix,current,tempc,*triplet), where tix is the triplet index, cur is the drive current, tempc the triplet temperature, and triplet is an output parameter returning the calibration parameters.

• The calibration database could also expose the temperature correction polynomials for a post mixing temperature correction approach. See aomw_colormath for an example.

Once the calibration database supplies the color point of a triplet, the function aomw_color_computemix() computes the mixing ratios for that triplet to reach a specified target color. A step is aomw_color_mix_to_pwm() which maps the mixing ratios to 14, 15 or 16 bit PWM driver.

Execution architecture

One aspect in this library touches the topic of execution architecture. The topo build (aomw_topo_build()) sends multiple telegrams to probe the OSP chain and build the topology map. Running this is one go would block other tasks (e.g. checking button presses or receiving commands via serial) for a too long time.

Therefore, aomw_topo_build() has been split in three parts (aomw_topo_build_start(), aomw_topo_build_step(), and aomw_topo_build_done()). These functions send one telegram per call. This is more suitable when other time critical tasks need to be executed as well.

Commands

The topo module also has a command handler that can be registered with the command interpreter. This makes the topology map and the high level aomw_topo_settriplet() available through the serial interface.

// Pick commands that we want in this application
void cmds_register() {
  aocmd_register();           // include all standard commands from aocmd
  aomw_topo_cmd_register();   // include the topo command
  Serial.printf("cmds: registered\n");
}

void setup() {
  // Identify over Serial
  Serial.begin(115200);

  // Initialize all libraries
  aospi_init(); 
  aoosp_init();
  aocmd_init();
  aoui32_init();
  aomw_init();

  cmds_register();
  ...
}

void loop() {
  // Process incoming characters (commands)
  aocmd_cint_pollserial();
  ...
}

Note that the command topo enum is more powerful than osp enum; it is "query-able".
