Hi there! I am using Adafruit Flora and Arduino to create a circuit of 4 megapixels and 1 sensor. Everytime I try to upload the code to test it, the Flora overheats and then it doesn’t work.
here is my code:
#include <Adafruit_NeoPixel.h>
#ifdef __AVR__
#include <avr/power.h>
#endif
#include <Wire.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include <Adafruit_TSL2561_U.h>
#define PIN 6
#define NUMPIXELS 4
int led = 6;
//int led = 6;
Adafruit_NeoPixel strip = Adafruit_NeoPixel(2, 6, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800);
/* This driver uses the Adafruit unified sensor library (Adafruit_Sensor),
which provides a common 'type' for sensor data and some helper functions.
To use this driver you will also need to download the Adafruit_Sensor
library and include it in your libraries folder.
You should also assign a unique ID to this sensor for use with
the Adafruit Sensor API so that you can identify this particular
sensor in any data logs, etc. To assign a unique ID, simply
provide an appropriate value in the constructor below (12345
is used by default in this example).
Connections
===========
Connect SCL to I2C SCL Clock
Connect SDA to I2C SDA Data
Connect VDD to 3.3V or 5V (whatever your logic level is)
Connect GROUND to common ground
I2C Address
===========
The address will be different depending on whether you leave
the ADDR pin floating (addr 0x39), or tie it to ground or vcc.
The default addess is 0x39, which assumes the ADDR pin is floating
(not connected to anything). If you set the ADDR pin high
or low, use TSL2561_ADDR_HIGH (0x49) or TSL2561_ADDR_LOW
(0x29) respectively.
