CH32-16-CH-EXT
A simple CH32V003-based extension board providing 16 outputs (2x 74HC595), primarily designed for controlling Chinese 16-relay modules (archive) over RS485. Uses 64-byte internal flash page for state persistence.
KiCad hardware design files are in the hw directory.
comm protocol
uses Modbus RTU protocol over RS485
