Re: i2c RTC and second sensor problems

You were correct. The PI can read via i2c from the 5V sensor and also the 3V RTC but not concurrently. I used a logic level convertor and now both read correctly

Thanks

Re: i2c RTC and second sensor problems

Thanks for the advice on the logic convertor - In retrospect I should have chosen the 3V version of the pressure sensor. I've ordered a convertor and will post back if it is successful

Thanks again

Re: i2c RTC and second sensor problems

Good point about the pullups. Both the DVLR pressure sensor (DLVR-L01D-E2NS-C-NI5F ) and the Adafruit DS3231 are fed from the 5V supply on the PI, ADAfruit state that the RTC can run at either 3.3 or 5V.

i2c RTC and second sensor problems

Hi Folks - any thoughts on this probelm. I am using a PI3B to read and plot data from an DVLR i2c pressure sensor as part of an Infrasound project (http://www.starfishprime.co.uk/projects/infrasound/infrasound.html). No problems reading from the 5V i2c sensor. I now add an Adafruit DS3231 RTC fed fr...
