Earlier both were returning bogus values for chip id read. Also I am interested to known which kind of communication there is actually seen on I2C bus? If it starts working then have to find out way to fix it properly so that any earlier device didn't broke. regards Antti On 04/09/2016 03:50 AM, Antti Palosaari wrote: > uh, how it could be so hard? > > I just made few tests and found 3 ways to read it.
