class adafruit_nunchuk.Nunchuk(i2c, address=82, i2c_read_delay=0.002)

Class which provides interface to Nintendo Nunchuk controller.

Parameters:

• i2c – The busio.I2C object to use.
• address (int, optional) – The I2C address of the device. Default is 0x52.
• i2c_read_delay (float, optional) – The time in seconds to pause between the I2C write and read. This needs to be at least 200us. A conservative default of 2000us is used since some hosts may not be able to achieve such timing.
