New module: POT board

[Ghost]

Hi all,

Very cool to see the new modules being talked about and shown.

I saw the latest Kickstarter update and was wondering what the role of the "12C POT board" was? What is this and what would it be used for? Or is this one of those "if you have to ask then it isn't for you"-type scenarios? 

I'm not really sure, either...I do know that I²C stands for Inter-Integrated Circuit 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%C2%B2C

Apparently, 'It is typically used for attaching lower-speed peripheral ICs to processors and microcontrollers.'

There's a page on the Pine A64 wiki about it and the various other POTs:

Simply put, it's for connecting stuff to. 

Someone will hopefully come along in a while and fill in some more specifics and examples of how the I²C  POT board might be used...
