I2C address:
1100 000 and 1100 001 OR
1100 010 and 1100 011
You can order both versions. The addresses of your board can be found on the bottom side.
Physical dimensions
- Board outline: 25x25mm
- Mounting hole diameter: 3mm
- Mounting hole pitch: 19x19mm (3mm from board edge)
Using the board
Set a voltage:
sudo i2cset -y 1 0x60 0x40 0xff 0xf0 i
^^ ^ < Voltage bits
