AppMod sockets...

I thought I read somewhere I could stack AppMod's on top of each other.· For example I have a AppMod LCD display and a TAOS AppMod color sensor.· Can I stack these on top of each other?· I assume they share some of the pins are their any special considerations when doing this?

Thanks!
Matt

    Matt,

    ·· Some AppMod Devices use the AppMod protocol and sometimes share the same lines.· When they do it's usually because they're using Open Baud Mode and only respond when they receive the proper ID.· The LCD AppMod is Parallel, and it uses more lines.· Just verify none are being used by the TAOS and you should be okay.· As a note many of the AppMods that do share common serial lines were discontinued, which is why you don't see much discussion on the protocol.
