Type

Interface

Background

An abstract interface for temperature sensing device drivers.

Overview

The interface should be inherited by device drivers that are responsible for obtaining temperature readings.

Detailed Design

API

namespace sjsu
{
class TemperatureSensor
{
 public:
  virtual Status Initialize() const = 0;
  virtual Status GetTemperature(
      units::temperature::celsius_t * temperature) const = 0;
};
}  // namespace sjsu

Initialization

virtual Status Initialize() const

Performs the necessary initialization sequence to initializes the driver for use and returns the initialization status.

Obtaining Sensor Readings

virtual Status GetTemperature(
    units::temperature::celsius_t * temperature) const

Retrieves the temperature reading and writes the value to the designated memory address.
