Access to spi or I2C pins

Post by kdoney34711 »

Is there any way to get access to the spi pins w/clocking? I need to add some hardware to the miac. How about I2C?

Hello

My suggestion would be to create an external module that is controllable via the CAN bus for using other busses such as SPI or I2C.

Otherwise the SPI and I2C Flowcode components will work to control the pins of the microcontroller inside the MIAC but you may loose the functionality of the MIAC peripherals. Exactly which peripherals you will loose I am currently unsure without looking at the schematic. Flowcode I2C can be software bit banged via the component properties so you can use this to pick and choose which pins to use.
