Digital In/Out

[ctmorrison]

If I want to use A2 on a QT PY as a digital input, do I merely need to set it up as follows:

Code: Select all

switch = DigitalInOut(board.A2)
switch.direction = Direction.INPUT
switch.pull = Pull.UP

?

I'm also wanting to use A0 and A1 as digital output, so I'm assuming it would be similar to the above.

Yep. Should work.

I'm getting an error on

Code: Select all

switch.pull = Pull.UP

Perhaps that's not supported on the QT PY A2 port?

[adafruit_support_carter]

OK, that can happen. Internal pull ups are something that not all microcontrollers provide on their digital pins. Which QT PY are you using?

ESP32-S2

Also, if I want to use SDA as a digital input, do I simply declare it using something like

Code: Select all

relayStatus = DigitalInOut(board.SDA)

What error ? Did you import Pull ?
Please give us the full error.
Are your imports like this ?

Code: Select all

from digitalio import DigitalInOut, Pull, Direction

Also, if I want to use SDA as a digital input, do I simply declare it using something like

Yes, it's just the pin name, it can be used for anything you want to do with the pin.

So...the pull error was my fault. I had previously done a

Code: Select all

from digital import DigitalInOut, Direction, Pull

but had subsequently removed the Pull was it wasn't being used and threw an error (in Mu).

I ended up simply adding an external pulldown resistor.

Thanks for the assist.
