newbi3 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 So I am working on getting data between my toaster and my pi. One problem, I can find the damn ground pin on the CD4541BE timer chip on the toaster. The datasheet including the pinout is here: http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/cd4541b.pdf The only thing i could think of that would make sense is if ground was one of the NC pins (not connected) Help would be amazing! HACK ALL THE THINGS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbi3 Posted December 28, 2013 Author Share Posted December 28, 2013 I promise it has a purpose I just want to be the first to do what I am trying to do so I am trying to be hushed about it. Once I get it working I will gladly show it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
