Waveshare Pico UPS-B shield

Overview

The Waveshare Pico UPS-B shield is an uninterruptible Power supply (UPS) module designed for the Raspberry Pi Pico which uses the Texas Instruments’ INA219 current/power Monitor. It communicates with the Raspberry Pi Pico over I2C

Programming

Set --shield waveshare_pico_ups_b when you invoke west build or cmake in your Zephyr application. For example:

Using west:

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b rpi_pico --shield waveshare_pico_ups_b samples/sensor/ina219
west flash

Using CMake and ninja:

# From the root of the zephyr repository
# Use cmake to configure a Ninja-based buildsystem:
cmake -Bbuild -GNinja -DBOARD=rpi_pico -DSHIELD="waveshare_pico_ups_b" samples/sensor/ina219

# Now run the build tool on the generated build system:
ninja -Cbuild
ninja -Cbuild flash
