# PyBMA400

A Python library for the Bosch BMA400 accelerometer, providing easy access to accelerometer data and configuration.

## Installation

```bash
pip install pybma400
```

## Features

- Read acceleration data
- Read temperature data in Celsius
- Configure power modes, sampling rates, and ranges
- Low-level register access for advanced users
- Simple orientation detection functionality

## Requirements

- Python 3.6 or later
- Raspberry Pi or other Linux system with I2C enabled
- SMBus library (automatically installed as a dependency)

## Usage Example

```python
from pybma400 import BMA400

# Initialize the sensor
sensor = BMA400()  # Default I2C bus=1, address=0x14

# Read acceleration data
x, y, z = sensor.acceleration
print(f"Acceleration: X={x:.2f}, Y={y:.2f}, Z={z:.2f} m/s²")

# Read temperature
temp = sensor.temperature
print(f"Temperature: {temp:.1f}°C")

# Configure the sensor
sensor.power_mode = BMA400.NORMAL_MODE
sensor.output_data_rate = BMA400.ACCEL_100HZ
sensor.acc_range = BMA400.ACC_RANGE_4  # ±4g range
```
