• How I made the PicoCray | HackSpace #69

  I started with three Picos connected by their I2C ports – one as an I2C controller and two I2C processors, all powered by individual USB cables and connected via a strip of Veroboard. A quick test in MicroPython proved that it was workable but, as we are aiming for speed, I quickly swapped to C. Luckily, there is example code for the Pico I2C Slave in Raspberry Pi’s C GitHub, and this formed the basis for the Processor-to-Processor communication.
