Grove - I2C Hub (6 Port)
Grove - I2C Hub (6 Port) is an I2C expansion interface board, compared with the old Grove - I2C Hub, the same size, two more connectors, almost half the price!
Overview
We've already released the Grove - I2C Hub (4 Port), now comes the 6 port version, the same size, two more connectors, almost half the price!
As you may know, the 7 address length I2C bus allows up to 128 I2C devices to access.
At present, there are over 80 Grove I2C modules in Seeed, however, normally only 1 or 2 Grove I2C connectors are available on the Seeeduino Board or the Grove Base Shield. What if we need to use multi Grove I2C modules in the system? The answer is Grove - I2C Hub (6 Port).
There are 6 Grove connectors in this hub, one input, five output, or you can even connect one hub with another, so that more devices can be plugged in.
Not only I2C but also can be used to control several synchronous change devices (like LEDs).
We did a survey and gathered some feedback about the old Grove I2C Hub (4 Port), many users mentioned that the 4 slots are not sufficient, so we add two more and keep the same 20*40mm size.
SeeedStudio always values the voice of our customers, and we appreciate our customers helping us grow and make us better.

Arduino MKR RGB displays PurpleAir air quality data for a sensor near you.
We'll certainly remember this year, with many of us learning how to adapt and live a safe life-style under the pandemic. As many countries begin to initiate a relaxation of restrictions and we are starting to be able to leave our houses, arrange shifts to get into work (still observing safety measures), we might find ourselves with different needs. Perhaps we got used to having the TV on more often than usual, letting the voices of shows we don’t really watch keep us company in the background while home alone… working. Maybe we just like to have a corner light up with colors which soothe our moods, or give a fancy background tint to a remote disco party as we dress with big shades and wigs. Many of these things can easily be automated using Alexa and Arduino IoT Cloud, so when we (finally) leave the house and are not sure if the TV is still on, or if our living room corner is still purple! we can simply ask “Alexa, turn the TV off” or “Alexa, turn the living room off” and a series of smart devices and software will take care of it for us.Let’s give it a shot...
