Blender Bigger Brain*
On last week's post, I had a "to do" list over the comments of the "upcoming improvements". So Toshimitsu Kamei came to the rescue again with the IO expander stuff. He sent some study material and sugests a small proof of concept just by following some internet tutorials. He sugests the use of a MCP23017 I2C port expander.
Then, let me share the links:
- How To Use A MCP23017 I2C Port Expander With The Raspberry Pi - part 1;
- How To Use A MCP23017 I2C Port Expander With The Raspberry Pi - part 2;
- How To Use A MCP23017 I2C Port Expander With The Raspberry Pi - part 3;
- Working with I2C port expanders;
And then, let's start reading and connecting wire jumps over the protoboard. I don't think that I will achieve a major breaktru this week, but I do need to improve my hardware skills.
