 +====== Adding external I2C Sensors ======
  
 +The Kniwwelino Board features a 4-pin connector which is using the I2C protocol ([[wp>I²C]]). This protocol allows you to connect various different sensors (up to 127 at once) 
 +
 +===== Connecting the Sensor =====
 +
 +The I2C connector on the Kniwwelino as well as all supported I2C sensors have the following four pins:
 +  * **VCC** 3.3V provided by the Kniwwelino Board to power the sensors.
 +  * **GND** Common Ground
 +  * **SDA** Serial Data Line
 +  * **SCL** Serial Clock Line
 +
 +These 4 pins must be connected 1 to 1 from the Kniwwelino board to the sensor. 
 +
 +{{:en:extensions:i2c_1.jpg?direct&400|}}{{:en:extensions:i2c_2.jpg?direct&400|}}
 +
 +Other sensors can be wired in parallel by connecting them the same way either at the Kniwwelino board or one of the connected sensors. For easier connection an [[https://www.seeedstudio.com/Grove-I2C-Hub-p-851.html|I2C hub]] can be used.

 +===== Supported Sensors =====
 +If you add your own I2C sensors, please note that the LED matrix chip is using the address 0x70.

 +
 +===== Programming the i2c Sensors =====
 +You can read the sensor data and use it in your application with the following blocks, listed in ''Sensors'':

 +{{:en:extensions:sensors_1.png|}}

 +{{:en:extensions:sensors_3.png|}}
 +
 +{{:en:extensions:sensors_4.png|}}
 +
 +{{:en:extensions:sensors_5.png|}}
 +
 +Choose the block with the same reference number as your sensor, and select the value you want to read.
 +
 +For example, to read the temperature with the SHT30 Sensor every 5 seconds, and display it on the matrix, you would use the following blocks:
