I2C Peripherals

This board includes the following peripherals over the I2C bus:

I2C Bus Connection

I/Os

The following devices are connected through GPIO:

Power

• USB type-C (no PD compatibility).
• Li-Ion battery charger - MCP73831T-2ACI/OT, it charges up to 4.2V.
  • Recommendation: MCP73831T-2ACI/OT does not provide battery protection for over-current or over-discharge. For the battery (Li-Ion or Li-Po), it's recommended the ones with embedded protection
  • Limitation: reading the battery voltage is not supported.
