BlinkLED allows the I2C1 port (e.g. the secnond I2C port on ATmega328pb) to interface with a host SBC.

The i2c-debug firmware can be used to test the I2C1 port, its address is at 0x2A. The Uno clone running i2c-debug has another I2C interface at 0x29.

picocom -b 38400 /dev/ttyUSB0

{"txBuffer[2]":[{"data":"0x0"},{"data":"0x3"}]}

blinking has stopped

/0/ibuff 0
{"txBuffer[2]":[{"data":"0x0"}]}
/0/iread? 2
{"rxBuffer":[{"data":"0x0"},{"data":"0xFC"}]}

Note: I incuded the command byte befor reading the data because I think that is what SMBus does.
