M5 Stack Grove-T Connector (5pcs) Documentation
Overview
The M5 Stack Grove-T Connector is a set of five connectors designed for the M5 Stack series of microcontrollers. These connectors provide a convenient and efficient way to connect various Grove modules to the M5 Stack board, enabling rapid prototyping and development of IoT projects.
Technical Specifications
Compatible with M5 Stack series of microcontrollers
 5 pcs per package
 Grove-T connector interface
 Supports digital, analog, and I2C communication protocols
Code Examples
### Example 1: Connecting a Grove LED to the M5 Stack
In this example, we will connect a Grove LED module to the M5 Stack board using the Grove-T connector. We will then use the M5 Stack's built-in Arduino library to control the LED.
Hardware Requirements
M5 Stack board
 Grove LED module
 M5 Stack Grove-T Connector (1pc)
Code
```c
#include <M5Stack.h>
#define LED_PIN 26 // Grove LED connected to pin 26 on the M5 Stack
void setup() {
  M5.begin();
  pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_PIN, HIGH);
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(LED_PIN, LOW);
  delay(1000);
}
```
In this example, we define the LED pin as pin 26 on the M5 Stack board. We then set the pin as an output and use the `digitalWrite()` function to toggle the LED on and off.
### Example 2: Connecting a Grove Temperature Sensor to the M5 Stack
In this example, we will connect a Grove Temperature Sensor module to the M5 Stack board using the Grove-T connector. We will then use the M5 Stack's built-in Arduino library to read the temperature data from the sensor.
Hardware Requirements
M5 Stack board
 Grove Temperature Sensor module
 M5 Stack Grove-T Connector (1pc)
Code
```c
#include <M5Stack.h>
#include <Wire.h>
#define TEMP_SENSOR_ADDRESS 0x5A // Grove Temperature Sensor address
void setup() {
  M5.begin();
  Wire.begin();
}
void loop() {
  Wire.beginTransmission(TEMP_SENSOR_ADDRESS);
  Wire.write(0x07); // Register address for temperature data
  Wire.endTransmission();
  Wire.requestFrom(TEMP_SENSOR_ADDRESS, 2);
  byte msb = Wire.read();
  byte lsb = Wire.read();
  float temperature = (msb << 8 | lsb)  0.1;
  Serial.print("Temperature: ");
  Serial.print(temperature);
  Serial.println(" C");
  delay(1000);
}
```
In this example, we use the `Wire` library to communicate with the Grove Temperature Sensor module via I2C protocol. We read the temperature data from the sensor and convert it to a readable format using the ` Wire.read()` function.
These examples demonstrate the ease of use and versatility of the M5 Stack Grove-T Connector, allowing developers to quickly integrate various Grove modules into their IoT projects.
