We covered a DMX transceiver on EYE ON NPI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=X12v_qLC4-M) a few weeks ago, and after learning about how DMX works, we decided to make a DMX FeatherWing much like the MIDI 'Wing (https://www.adafruit.comproduct/4740).
We'll need a chip, a hardware UART, and a couple of GPIOs. We'll also need two DIN connectors, one for the input and one for the output. We're sure that we can get some simple through-hole components through DigiKey; let's look for both the "input" and "output" directions for the DMX connectors.
