Hello folks
I'm planning a project, where I want to communicate with many hardware devices like sensors, displays, switches. I'm planning to add two i2C Expanders and around 8 more I2C-Devices which all have different addresses. Some (most) of the I2C devices will be around 50cm away from the raspberry pi.
Do I have to expect problems in communication with so many devices or shouldn't that be an issue at all? Is there something I should especially take care off, like the cables I use, for example? Does it make a difference, whether I will use a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 for the project? Are there ways I could minimize the risk of running into problems?
Would be happy to read some opinions or some heads-ups.
Thanks!
