Last week, we talked about using chipKIT Pro and asynchronous communication in our Digilent Learn module that covers Richard Wall’s material. Today, we’re going to get into the ninth project in this series using the chipKIT Pro MX7.

This project investigates concepts involving synchronous communications using a basic master-slave multi-drop network communications. The project uses the I2C protocol to communicate with the 24LC256 I2C™ CMOS Serial EEPROM.

Check it out, and if you need to learn more about C++ before you get started, check out Josh’s blog post, as that is necessary for completing this project.
