Check out LIN and I2C for low speed networking needs. They are often better alternatives than SPI or CAN for many applications. The serial peripheral interface (SPI) and universal asynchronous ...

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.

The I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) Bus invented in 1980 by Philips Semiconductors (NXP Semiconductors today) was a massive step forward in simplifying communications in embedded systems. It is a ...

This articles describes how you can use I2C (TWI) communication, Arduino and temperature sensors to measure 3 different temperatures. It can be very helpful when you want to measure the outside, ...

In theory, any piece of software could be built out of discrete pieces of hardware, provided there are enough transistors, passive components, and time available. In general, though, we’re much more ...
