# Module: ina260.py
#
# Description: This module acts as an interface between the INA260 sensor
# and downstream applications that use the data. Class methods get
# current, voltage, and power data from the INA260 sensor. It acts as a
# library module that can be imported into and called from other Python
# programs.
