An LCD can be made to connect to a microcontroller using two wires with the aid of the I2C interface which includes pins for an SPI interface version for flexibility. The I2C LCD interface is used ...

We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

Maxim has introduced a chip to interface devices equipped with I2C or SPI bus connections to its ‘1-wire’ bus. Called DS28E18, it is intended to knock cost out of networks that connecting I2C and SPI ...

Delivers the flexible, multiple-peripherals simplicity of I2C and the faster, lower-latency communication of SPI in a single, efficient, easier-to-use IP core Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey — September 5, ...

The PCA9502 is an 8-bit I/O expander with I²C-bus/SPI host interface. The device comes in a very small HVQFN24 package, which makes it ideally suitable for hand-held, battery operated applications.

More often than not, an IoT master device uses the SPI (serial peripheral interface) and I 2 C (inter-integrated circuit) protocols to exchange data with EEPROMs or sensors that are operating in slave ...

Electronics is everywhere, especially these days. Many times, as frequent users, we do not even notice a “paradigm change” in the things we use on regular basis. We use a fridge, but we do not care ...

Teaching people efficiently isn’t limited to transmitting material from one head to another — it’s also about conveying the principles that got us there. [Mara Bos] shows us a toolkit (Twitter, nitter ...

Linear Technology has introduced a six-channel isolator to break ground potential problems for SPI or I²C. Requiring no additional components, not even decoupling capacitors, LTM2892-I is I²C ...
