No matter how many ports an Arduino board has, they never seem to be enough for the cool new project you have in mind. Luckily there is a solution. The Arduino has both I2C and SPI pins, and there are a number of I2C and SPI GPIO chips, and modules built with those chips.
By using this you can connect multiple such modules on the same I2C channel.
