Hello all,
Issue: The adafruit TSL2591 light sensor has a I2C address (0x29) which 'cannot' be changed. Is it possible through code (basically not creating a hardware switch on SCL or SDA) to chain x2 of these sensors on a single interface (pins 16/17) without a multiplexer? The reason I ask is because, although the data may be different at different times on the address , or same at same time on the address, the end result in the code is to asses for a change in data and not which sensor saw it......
I am aware that the T3.2 has wire and wire1....And if I used wire for one TSL2591 and wire1 for the other, would there still be conflict? (i would think not as these are separate interfaces...?)
I am aware that I can add a multiplexer....
Thank you for any input!
