¿Puedo usar pines GPIO en la Raspberry Pi para el amplificador HX711?

La declaración del módulo amplificador HX711 de Sparkfun dice:

El código de ejemplo tiene DAT y CLK conectados al pin 3 y 2 respectivamente, pero esto se cambia fácilmente en el código. Cualquier pin GPIO funcionará para cualquiera.

Además, a partir del código de ejemplo, como dice Jack Creasy, puede confirmar la declaración anterior:

 Example using the SparkFun HX711 breakout board with a scale

 This is the calibration sketch. Use it to determine the calibration_factor that the main example uses. It also
 outputs the zero_factor useful for projects that have a permanent mass on the scale in between power cycles.

 Setup your scale and start the sketch WITHOUT a weight on the scale
 Once readings are displayed place the weight on the scale
 Press +/- or a/z to adjust the calibration_factor until the output readings match the known weight
 Use this calibration_factor on the example sketch

 This example assumes pounds (lbs). If you prefer kilograms, change the Serial.print(" lbs"); line to kg. The
 calibration factor will be significantly different but it will be linearly related to lbs (1 lbs = 0.453592 kg).

 Your calibration factor may be very positive or very negative. It all depends on the setup of your scale system
 and the direction the sensors deflect from zero state

 Arduino pin 2 -> HX711 CLK
 3 -> DOUT
 5V -> VCC
 GND -> GND

 >>>>**Most any pin on the Arduino Uno will be compatible with DOUT/CLK.**

 The HX711 board can be powered from 2.7V to 5V so the Arduino 5V power should be fine.

#include "HX711.h"

#define DOUT  3
#define CLK  2

HX711 scale(DOUT, CLK);

float calibration_factor = -7050; //-7050 worked for my 440lb max scale setup

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("HX711 calibration sketch");
  Serial.println("Remove all weight from scale");
  Serial.println("After readings begin, place known weight on scale");
  Serial.println("Press + or a to increase calibration factor");
  Serial.println("Press - or z to decrease calibration factor");

  scale.set_scale();
  scale.tare(); //Reset the scale to 0

  long zero_factor = scale.read_average(); //Get a baseline reading
  Serial.print("Zero factor: "); //This can be used to remove the need to tare the scale. Useful in permanent scale projects.
  Serial.println(zero_factor);
}

void loop() {

  scale.set_scale(calibration_factor); //Adjust to this calibration factor

  Serial.print("Reading: ");
  Serial.print(scale.get_units(), 1);
  Serial.print(" lbs"); //Change this to kg and re-adjust the calibration factor if you follow SI units like a sane person
  Serial.print(" calibration_factor: ");
  Serial.print(calibration_factor);
  Serial.println();

  if(Serial.available())
  {
    char temp = Serial.read();
    if(temp == '+' || temp == 'a')
      calibration_factor += 10;
    else if(temp == '-' || temp == 'z')
      calibration_factor -= 10;
  }
}

Vea la línea marcada '>>>>'. Puedes usar cualquier pin en Arduino. Por lo tanto, los pines D_OUT y SCK del amplificador HX711 no necesitan conectarse solo con los pines I2C del microcontrolador.

El mismo caso es para Raspberrypi. Al igual que Arduino, RaspberryPi también se puede usar con el amplificador HX711 a través de la biblioteca python de HX711 . Y no hay necesidad de usar el pin SCK de Raspberrypi. Para obtener más información, busque este tutorial .
