Which Python library is commonly used to communicate with the MCP3008 over SPI on Raspberry Pi?
ARPi.GPIO
Bsmbus
Cserial
Dspidev
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Identify SPI communication library

    The spidev library is designed for SPI communication on Raspberry Pi.
  2. Step 2: Match library to MCP3008 usage

    MCP3008 uses SPI protocol, so spidev is the correct library to communicate with it.
  3. Final Answer:

    spidev -> Option D
  4. Quick Check:

    SPI communication = spidev library [OK]
Quick Trick: Use spidev for SPI devices like MCP3008 on Pi [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Using RPi.GPIO which is for GPIO pins, not SPI
  • Choosing smbus which is for I2C devices
  • Selecting serial which is for UART communication
