4.2 Knapfunktioner

The M5StickC PLUS2 features three programmable buttons:

  • Knap A: General purpose button, typically located on the front face below the screen.
  • Knap B: General purpose button, typically located on the front face below the screen, next to Button A.
  • Knap C: Located on the side. Primarily functions as the power control button, but can also be programmed for short press actions.

4.3 Brug af skærm

The 1.14-inch TFT LCD provides a visual interface for displaying information, sensor readings, or custom graphics. Its 135x240 resolution allows for clear text and simple graphical elements. Programming libraries are available to control the display content.

4.4 Integrerede periferiudstyr

The device includes several integrated peripherals that can be accessed and controlled via programming:

  • Infrared (IR) Transmitter: Use for sending IR signals to control compatible devices.
  • Mikrofon: Capture audio input for sound detection or voice processing.
  • LED: A programmable indicator light for status feedback.
  • IMU (inertiel måleenhed): Provides 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope data for motion sensing applications.
  • Summer: Generate audible tones for alerts or simple sound effects.
  • RTC (realtidsur): Keep accurate time and date, even when the main power is off.

4.5 udvidelsesporte

The M5StickC PLUS2 offers several options for expanding its functionality:

  • External 8-Pin Header: This header provides access to various GPIO pins and power lines (GND, 5V, G26, G36/G25, G0, BAT, 3V3, 5V) for connecting external sensors, actuators, or custom circuits.
