You only really need two data wires to transfer a ton of data. Standards like UART, USB2, I2C, SPI, PS/2, CAN, RS232, SWD (an interface to program MCUs), RS485, DMX, and many others, all are a ...
I had one of those why-didn’t-I-think-of-it moments this week, reading this article about multiplexing I2C on the ESP32 microcontroller. The idea is so good, and so simple, that it’s almost silly that ...
The fundamentals of the Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) interface, and its associated protocol. What made this simple, robust, chip-to-chip interface so useful for embedded system applications? How the ...
