Title: TEMPERATURE / HUMIDITY TINYSHIELD I2C Communication
Post by: ColorfulCarrot on January 04, 2021, 06:52:40 PM

Hello all,

So I have a stack of tinyduino boards. I have a sensor that I need to send information from to the processor board using I2C lines. I have the proto board which works but for the purposes of my project I cant have the proto board on top of the stack so I cant connect the lines from my sensor to the stack using this method.

I have a temperature/humidity tinyshield connected to my stack. This board has 2 external SDA/SCL lines. My question is, can I connect my sensor to these lines on the temperature sensor board to communicate to the processor board?

Thank you!

The SDA, SCL, GND, and VCC pads can all be soldered to like you would normally make connections directly to an Arduino. So, yes, you can use them for connecting an additional I2C device.

I hope that helps!

Thanks,
Réna
