Assume that you are moving towards a complex microcontroller project bundled with blinkers, beepers, and a display panel. To link a standard 16×2 LCD directly with the microcontroller, for instance ...
An Inter-IC bus is often used to communicate across circuit-board distances. Here’s a primer on the protocol. At the low end of the spectrum of communication options for “inside the box” communication ...
A lot of great ICs use I2C to communicate, but debugging a non-working I2C setup can be opaque, especially if you’re just getting started with the protocol/bus. An I2C bus scanner can be a helpful ...
Several of the Mid-Range Enhanced Core PIC16 microcontroller devices have a Master Synchronous Serial Port (MSSP). The MSSP module can be used to implement either I2CTM or SPI communications protocol.
