Force Unit Breakout Board
An I2C extension board with LTC4311 bus accelerator and shielded ethernet port. This board is for the target side. With proper controller side hardware and an SSTP ethernet cable, the board provides robust i2c communication over 10ft(could be longer, haven't tested it yet) with a bitrate of 400kHz under a noisy environment( near motors, power cables, switches, etc). The breakout board receives power from the controller side and can power i2c device. The board also supports drdy trigger, which is available on many i2c sensors. #project #I2C #shielded #robust #ltc4311 #long-distance

Arduino Force Units Connection Shield
An I2C extension shield with 6 shielded ethernet ports and a TCA9548 breakout board. This board is for the target side, any microcontroller with a standard Arduino header can use it. With proper target side hardware and an SSTP ethernet cable, the board provides robust i2c communication over 10ft(could be longer, haven't tested it yet) with a bitrate of 400kHz under a noisy environment( near motors, power cables, switches, etc). The shield board provides power to the target side and can power the i2c device. The board also supports drdy trigger, which is available on many i2c sensors. The TCA9548 breakout board is for a scenario in which all of your i2c devices have the same address. #Arduino #Uno #Shield #Template #project-template #project
