Wiring a Push Button as External Device to GPIO Header for EHS6T | Telit Cinterion IoT Developer Community

March 8, 2019 - 5:17am, 2421 views

Hi,

I am currently looking at attaching an external momentary push button switch on a breadboard to the GPIO header pins on the EHS6T, for a simple button state logic demonstration to some classroom students.

For the hardware setup, do I simply use GND, 5V and the signal pin of choice e.g GPIO 11?

Also, do you recommend using the GPIO library to handle the level shifting ?

Thanks,

Nick.
