Good Morning, fellow #RetroComputing #Fedizens !
Let's start the day with some #NewRetro goodness for motivation, shall we?
Yesterday, I built a small test setup to connect the #My4th machine to a #Breadboard which is equipped with a #BMP180 #Temperature #Sensor.
Then, I went ahead and used what little #Forth I have learned so far along with the My4th custom words 'i2c-start', 'i2c-send', 'i2c-recv' and 'i2c-stop' to try to read raw temperature data from the sensor. And: it works!
I now need to figure out how I can get a reasonable temperature value from it, checking the BMP180 #Datasheet again ...
