Interface Codes
| Code | Interface |
|---|
| -I, I | I2C |
| -P, P | PWM |
| -A, A | Analog |
| -S, S | SPI |
Temperature Sensor FOV Codes
| Code | Field of View |
|---|
| 5D | 5 degrees |
| 10D | 10 degrees |
| 35D | 35 degrees |
| 90D | 90 degrees |
| 100D | 100 degrees |
Hall Sensor Sensitivity Codes
| Code | Sensitivity |
|---|
| HC | High |
| MC | Medium |
| LC | Low |
| ULC | Ultra-low |
Replacement Logic
- Must be same base series
- Interface must match
- For temperature sensors: FOV must match
- For Hall sensors: Sensitivity must match
- Higher resolution can replace lower
Test Patterns
When testing MelexisHandler:
- Use documentation tests for
matches()
behavior
- Use assertions for
extractPackageCode()
, extractSeries()
, null handling
- Instantiate directly:
new MelexisHandler()
Known Handler Issues
All issues fixed in PR #88
- Package code extraction regex removes all alphanumerics, always returns empty
