O’Reilly covers everything we've got, with content to help us build a world-class technology community, upgrade the capabilities and competencies of our teams, and improve overall team performance as well as their engagement.
I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.
I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
Chapter 17. I2C
I2C is a tremendously popular protocol for interfacing microcontrollers with small sensors and these days even with devices that require more speed. Its main advantage is that you can talk to a large number of devices with just a couple of wires, which makes it much more like a network than the SPI bus. When you find yourself wanting to talk with I2C devices, this chapter will get you a head start!
We’ll be continuing on from Chapter 16 toward building a logging I2C thermometer. If you use the SPI EEPROM chip from last chapter, the logger will be capable of recording the temperature at a variable frequency for at least a few days on AA batteries. Then, when you want to read the data back out, the AVR code ...
