    Default I/O expanders

    This is my offer for the smallest design on the MCP23017 I/O expander in bi-directional mode:

    It's possible to smoosh an SOIC with 0603 SMD down to 23mm x 107mm (0.9in x 4.2in), with no support holes (I slide them vertically around the enclosure perimeter. The headers should make for easy access.

    Hopefully I didn't do something real dumb, like on my prototype (A0-2 wired wrong, can only get 111 without hot-jumping wires )

    My Creality Ender 3 S1 Plus is a giant paperweight that can't even be used as a boat anchor, cause I'd be fined for polluting our waterways with electronic devices.

    Not as dumb as yesterday, but stupider than tomorrow!

    Am I the only person that can't stand having VSS above, and VDD below?

    I had to go and fix the caps so VDD was above, and VSS below.

    No, you are not alone! Don't like it, can't stand it!

    And bothers me alot when schematics from big companies do that on purpose, to just make your day miserable!
