It&#8217;s called a QTPy (as in cutie pie). It was developed in SEEED lab in China.. , a great innovator in hobby electronics.. and improved upon by Adafruit Labs.. the best hobbyist electronics company in the entire universe (as far as I know :-).&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The QTPy family with tons of functions packed&nbsp; into a tiny format. You can get an ESP32 wireless version , an RP2040 one, a SAMD21 version&#8230;. depending on what you want to do. They also have this really cute QWIIC connector for connecting I2C peripherals. It s a perfect platform for building blinky things !.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"100776\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-100776\" srcset=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 225w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 113w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 1152w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 948w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/E4CA9F91-D900-4409-B868-10C2F0881DA6_1_102_o.jpeg 1422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"100777\" src=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-100777\" srcset=\"http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 225w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 113w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 1152w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 948w, http:\/\/johncohn.org\/base\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/BEA321CD-6F74-4DC7-BABF-DE9056699AFC_1_102_o.jpeg 1422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to shannon for introducing me to my new best chip friend !<\/p>\n<p>nite all, nite sam<\/p>\n<p>-me<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you know me well, you know that I get really excited about technology.
