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.

We are pleased to announce the launch of the new Arduino Portenta Breakout, designed for developing hardware projects, testing, and debugging on Portenta family boards.The Portenta Breakout exploits all the capabilities of the input and outputs, making all high density connectors’ signals individually accessible. The Portenta Breakout reduces development time for industrial grade solution automation based on the Portenta line. Designed to help the hardware engineers and makers who want to develop a proprietary device for Portenta family boards or interfacing external devices to the Portenta family boards (e.g. the Portenta H7). It is now quick and easy to connect and test external hardware components and devices in the lab using all the high density connectors’ signals of the Portenta individually. Rapid development for machine vision Connectivity to the OpenMV Global Shutter Camera Module is provided on the Portenta Breakout, allowing for rapid development of machine vision applications alongside the Portenta family. Test external hardware and devices The Portenta Breakout enables easy debugging through the JTAG connector and allows for inspection of the bus lines through the breakout pins. In addition to the breakout pins, the Portenta Breakout features Ethernet, USB and SD sockets, a coin cell, a power button, an external power supply, an OpenMV camera socket, and configurable boot selection modes. Features include: Power ON buttonBoot mode DIP switchConnectorsUSBARJ45 GBit EthernetMicroSD cardOpenMV shutter moduleMIPI 20T JTAG with trace capabilityPowerCR2032 RTC lithium battery backupExternal power terminal blockI/OBreak out all Portenta high density connector signals Male/female HD connectors for interposing breakout between Portenta and shield to debug signals Beyond use in the development lab, the Portenta Breakout can act as a first point of entry for educating technicians in industrial grade control and embedded
