Communication

Communication blocks provide a special communication way for human with computer. Including: setting baud rate, serial print, read string, irreceive, I2C communication, SPI communication(new).

Serial communication

Serial communication let students have a look to variables in the serial monitor. It provides a convenient way to check the value of variables. Serial print can print values or strings. The difference between print and println is that Serial println can take a new line automaticlly.

Infrared communication

Infrared blocks provide sending and receiving functions for you so that you can using them to realize communication between infrared receivers and remote monitors.

I2C communication

Inter-integrated Circuit, also called I2C, is a special way to realize Synchronous communication。There are many advantages. The control method is simple, the number of interface line is less, and it have a high communication rate. Mixly supports I2C reading and writing, and support actuators based on I2C.

SPI communication

Serial Peripheral Interface, also called SPI, is a high-speed, synchronous communication bus. It just uses four pins. It's simple, and easy to send data to SPI.
