Re: I2C and GPS

[Lars Poulsen]

Hi
You can try to add a series resistor to the signals or reducing the drive
strength of the driver.
The frequency of the signals are not that important but rather the rise
time.
This is usually not a problem om i2c but  who knows.

Hi,

Ferrite beads aid with removing VHF-SHF feedback and/or uncontrolled
oscillation mainly. I cannot see why they would be of use on a (500khz?)
I2C bus. At that frequency they would have minimal effect.

Let me make your day today then :-)
I have previously expressed my appreciation about podboy and i am
happy to do it again.
It is definitely one of my most used programs and i enjoy using it very much.

I really like the responsiveness of the application. If only it was
not written in python i think flowers would be blooming and spring
would be coming early.

This is great.
Please keep it light.
We have been missing a decent browser for so long. Dillo is great but
does not show all pages with success.

Bookmarks would be great.

Thank you very much this is one of my most used programs on the freerunner.
You almost doesn't notice that it is written in python...
