You only need to connect 4 pins here:

* <mark style="color:red;">**5V**</mark> – You will supply a positive DC voltage (usually 5 volts) to this terminal to power the device.
* <mark style="color:$info;">**GND**</mark> – Ground terminal for the negative DC charge. This must be connected to the common ground of your entire circuit to ensure proper operation.
* <mark style="color:green;">**SCL**</mark>**&#x20;(Serial Clock Line)** – This pin carries the clock signal generated by the master device in an I²C communication setup. It synchronizes data transfer between the master and slave devices.
* <mark style="color:yellow;">**SDA**</mark>**&#x20;(Serial Data Line)** – This pin is used for bidirectional data transfer in I²C communication. It carries the actual data being transmitted between devices.
