4 year old video and it's still giving some great and relevent content. Thank you for a very straightforward explanation. I can't thank you enough.

Nice job! I had not thought about needing this, so far all my i2c are configurable or on unique addresses. Very well explained. Off to ali I go...

I had this module sitting around who knows how long, then I hard wired the address pins to a chip on a PCB and realized I should have put jumpers so I caused my own limitation when I wanted to use 2 boards together... Always good to buy random modules for those unexpected times.

It's a nice chip, but you have to try and keep as much on the same bus as you can to keep the bus switching overhead to a minimum If you require full speed. Still it's a nice way of getting out of an conflicting address hole.

Yeah I can't imagine trying to do fast ADC or DAC things this way.

yeah, small oled screens are cheap enough to make e.g. a clock (1 oled = 1 char) , but some can not change i2c address, perfect. black on white = daytime high visibility probably, white on black = nighttime

Is there a tutorial as good as this, but deals with switches? I'm looking to have 'several' switches on a PCF8574, but connected via a TCA9548A.

The best!! Just one doubt. What is the control register address for channel selection.

Hello mam.... Begin just a beginner and have started learning very basic of arduino... I came across how we can expand are I/O pin in arduino... But i was wondering can we store the status of those pins in the eeprom of arduino... So even if power cuts the expander regain its previous state before the power cut

@GadgetReboot 3 жыл бұрын

I've never used the EEProm but apparently there's examples here for reading and writing to it www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/EEPROM So yeah, if pin states are known like an 8 bit byte of GPIO states, that byte should easily be able to write to EEPROM using the examples and later can be read back from that location.

@@GadgetReboot oh...!!! thanku mam for your reply... Although i did not dive deep in the EEPROM functionality but i have learnt how to read and write to EEPROM.... And here with expander Ic's i thought that there would be a different way of implementing them.... As ARDUINO and ESP8266 have different ways to perform the Eeprom.... But know my concept of using Eeprom with expander Ic's is clear

Hi. Sorry i ask (i think you explain this but i dont understand well english, and i do not know much about electronic). Im using a tca9548a i2c with a raspberry pi zero w. I connect the tca9548a to 3.3v. and have 4 mcp23017 connected to that tca, also that mcp23017 with the same 3.3v. from the rpizero. But, i also want to connect a ht16k33 to the sda sdc of the tca9548a but, i want to connect the ht16k33 to a 5v (power from a cellphone). When i do this my program fail to execute... but if i put the ht16k33 to 3.3v works fine... so the problem here is that the tca9548a is not playing well with the different values. How i can get to work this? i mean some modules with 3.3.v and other with 5v? Thanks!!!!!

Hello, I'm a beginner and I would like to know : Can I control relays with this address? Thank you in advance 😊. Cordially.

@GadgetReboot Жыл бұрын

These are logic level control signals so some sort of relay driver would still be needed and that would be hooked up to these logic outputs. So either some sort of transistor driver or a more simple way is a driver chip like ULN2003 or ULN2803 microcontrollerslab.com/introduction-uln2803-features/

Hi friend, interesting device. So, could you (or some one else) please tellme if i'm getting this right? I'm trying to work with 5 GLCD SSD1306 with a pic18f4550. But this exceeds the ram's space. With this device, can i just have one single oled graphic display ssd1306 on my pic's program, and just declare 5 different variables that will define the 5 different adress to each glcd? (While connecting them to this device...) Or, i'm still having to declare the 5 GLCDs on program to recognize them? (Which is sadly not gonna help me saving ram) Thanks and Have a nice day.

Hello when I am configure TCA9548A with node mcu with temp sensor and Oximeter it's not working together but it's working on the Arduino what is problem with the node muc because same Programing is Done on the Both Board Please tell me???? it's Imp For my project

@GadgetReboot 3 жыл бұрын

For NodeMcu, is the TCA9548 module connected to: VIN to 3.3V GND to ground SDA to D2 and SCL to D1 And is it just using the normal Wire library and not a special I2C library? Was the TCA9548 with the 2 sensors working on a different Arduino and just not NodeMcu? Are there I2C pull up resistors on both of the sensors connected to TCA9548? Each I2C bus is treated as a separate one and they all need resistors if not already on a sensor or module.

@@ujwaladhaimbekar5874 The way I would try to figure it out is first eliminate anything extra to see if it's even related to TCA9548, so does it work if just one I2C sensor is directly connected to Node MCU? Also, if the sensors are powered from 5v on mega, are they also powered from 5v for Node MCU or are those on 3.3V? The TCA9548 should be powered from 3.3v but if the sensors can't run on 3.3v they can be hooked to 5v and the TCA9548 can work with 5V sensors. Maybe the sensors need 5V and you may have used 3.3v and it won't work?

@@ujwaladhaimbekar5874 It would probably be easier if there were wiring diagrams for both setups and the sketch somewhere for people to see and then maybe someone can identify something easily. Another thing that has happened to me that made no sense with Node MCU is using a different board file for it in the Arduino IDE where suddenly some things stopped working until I changed it to other versions. Right now I am using esp8266 version 2.4.2 in the Boards manager. I remember when I used newer ones, some things didn't work.
