Chapter 2. Connecting Things to the Raspberry Pi Zero
You need to learn how to connect things to your Raspberry Pi Zero, and also looked at the architecture and differentiate between the pins we can use for the purpose we defined. This is the reason we have this section--to help you with the sensors we can connect and give the basics of how to connect other things to your device. In this section, we will explain how to configure the Raspberry Pi; now you cannot avoid learning how to connect to your Raspberry Pi sensors to read analog inputs connected to it.
We will cover the following topics to make our hardware communicate with the board:
- Connecting digital inputs: Sensor DS18B20
- Connecting analog inputs using an MCP3008 ADC converter
- Connecting a real-time clock (RTC)
