  • Row 1:
  • 1. VCC (Voltage Supply): This pin provides the power supply to the component. It should be connected to a voltage source ranging from 3.3V to 5V.
  • 2. GND (Ground): This pin serves as the ground reference for the component. It should be connected to the ground of the power supply.
  • 3. TX (Transmit): This pin is used for transmitting data from the component to other devices. It's typically connected to the RX pin of another serial device.
  • 4. RX (Receive): This pin is used for receiving data from other devices. It's typically connected to the TX pin of another serial device.
  • 5. DIO (Digital Input/Output): This pin is a digital I/O pin that can be used for various purposes such as GPIO, I2C, or SPI communication.
  • 6. RST (Reset): This pin is used to reset the component. Connecting it to GND will reset the component.
  • 7. EN (Enable): This pin is used to enable or disable the component. Connecting it to VCC will enable the component, while connecting it to GND will disable it.
  • Row 2:
  • 1. SCL (Serial Clock): This pin is used for I2C communication and serves as the clock signal.
  • 2. SDA (Serial Data): This pin is used for I2C communication and serves as the data signal.
  • 3. SCK (Serial Clock): This pin is used for SPI communication and serves as the clock signal.
  • 4. MOSI (Master Out Slave In): This pin is used for SPI communication and serves as the master output/slave input signal.
  • 5. MISO (Master In Slave Out): This pin is used for SPI communication and serves as the master input/slave output signal.
  • 6. CS (Chip Select): This pin is used for SPI communication and serves as the chip select signal.
  • 7. IRQ (Interrupt): This pin is used to generate interrupts and notify the microcontroller of events or changes.
  • Pin Connection Structure:
  • When connecting the pins, follow these guidelines:
  • Use a breadboard or a PCB to connect the pins.
  • Ensure correct orientation of the component to avoid damage or incorrect connections.
  • Use jumper wires or breadboard wires to connect the pins to other components or modules.
  • Follow the recommended voltage and current ratings for each pin.
  • Use pull-up or pull-down resistors as necessary to prevent floating pins.

Code Examples
### Example 1: Using Glue Stick (Milky) with Arduino to Bond Sensors
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the Glue Stick (Milky) to bond a temperature sensor to a metal plate using an Arduino board.
```c++
#include <Arduino.h>
// Define the temperature sensor pin
const int tempSensorPin = A0;
void setup() {
  // Initialize the serial port
  Serial.begin(9600);
  
  // Glue the temperature sensor to the metal plate using the Glue Stick (Milky)
  // Apply a small amount of glue to the sensor and the plate
  // Hold the sensor in place for 10-15 seconds to ensure proper bonding
  
  // Wait for the glue to cure (24 hours)
  delay(86400000); // 24 hours in milliseconds
}
void loop() {
  // Read the temperature sensor value
  int tempValue = analogRead(tempSensorPin);
  float temperature = tempValue  0.488;
  
  // Print the temperature value
  Serial.print("Temperature: ");
  Serial.print(temperature);
  Serial.println(" C");
  
  delay(1000); // 1 second delay
}
```
### Example 2: Using Glue Stick (Milky) with Raspberry Pi to Create a Weather Station
In this example, we will demonstrate how to use the Glue Stick (Milky) to bond a weather-resistant enclosure to a Raspberry Pi board.
```python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time
# Define the GPIO pins for the sensor connections
rainSensorPin = 17
windSensorPin = 23
# Set up the GPIO pins
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(rainSensorPin, GPIO.IN)
GPIO.setup(windSensorPin, GPIO.IN)
# Glue the weather-resistant enclosure to the Raspberry Pi board using the Glue Stick (Milky)
# Apply a small amount of glue to the enclosure and the board
# Hold the enclosure in place for 10-15 seconds to ensure proper bonding
# Wait for the glue to cure (24 hours)
time.sleep(86400) # 24 hours in seconds
while True:
  # Read the rain sensor value
  rainValue = GPIO.input(rainSensorPin)
  
  # Read the wind sensor value
  windValue = GPIO.input(windSensorPin)
  
  # Print the weather data
  print("Rain: ", rainValue)
  print("Wind: ", windValue)
  
  time.sleep(10) # 10 second delay
```
Note: In both examples, ensure that the Glue Stick (Milky) is used in a well-ventilated area and follow the manufacturer's instructions for application and curing times. Additionally, test the bond strength and integrity before deploying the IoT device in a real-world scenario.
