A platform agnostic driver to interface with the MAX31855 (Cold-Junction Compensated Thermocouple-to-Digital Converter)
- Reading the thermocouple, cold junction reference temperature, fault status bits.
- Interface to read the hot junction reference in Counts, Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin.
- Currently testing with the MAX31855K and a Type K Thermocouple (Using the Sparkfun Thermocouple Breakout)
- Add interface for calibrated temperatures (current interface provides raw values from ADC)
- Additional fault management with the fault status bits. e.g. How to handle interface when faults are present? Partially done, need to pass NAN when fault exists
- Need to support signed integers (currently using u16. Need to use i16 and handle signed bit correctly).
- Test on Raspberry Pi (currently testing on the DISCOVERY)
- Finish read_all interface
- Perform fault testing (ensure fault bits work correctly)
- Improve code documentation
- Setup unit tests
- Clean up naming (e.g. someetimes it Hot Reference Junction sometimes its temeperature sometimes its thermocouple
