This is my favourite Hexpansion for the #EMF Tildagon badge. This lovely memory card by @hairymnstr looks fantastic.
I haven't done a lot with my badge yet, but when i do, it'll certainly make use of this.

@rc2014 @hairymnstr does bridging the two corner contacts make it reaonly? If so that's next level awesome!

@fennix @hairymnstr I don't know, but I am going to try the hole punching trick to see if I can double the storage 🙃

@fennix @rc2014 it is the write project jumper for the EEPROM. The badge checks for an I2C EEPROM when you plug a hexpansion and can load a tiny ( about 1kB in this case) bit of code from it. That code can configure the main storage, make it read only or even chain load more code. To update that "boot sector" EEPROM you must short the header. The location of the header was certainly chosen based on the old write protect switch.

@rc2014 @hairymnstr yup it’s lovely! I have a few nascent ideas, once the badge software gets a few more improvements. Also reminds me I have a number of other #hexpansions to do some soldering on!
I’ll just leave this here for someone else to look at.
